I've noticed this, too, and have likened it to haircuts: If you gave yourself a haircut, you don't say so, because it inevitably opens the door to a level of scrutiny and criticism that it wouldn't otherwise.
People are just going to lie about using AI and honestly that's fine. An even older idiom is that you don't want to see how the sausage gets made. Not if you enjoy sausage.
- WhyOhWhyQ 10mo agoI don't think it's fine. Don't lie about your work.
- Clamchop 10mo agoLie was probably the wrong word. Secrecy about how work is done is and has always been normal. Not saying anything at all if you're not obligated to is totally fair and, yes, fine. AI doesn't change that.

- andsoitis 10mo agoWe frown on people who pass off something they didn’t do or make as the fruit of their labor. AI isn’t good enough yet to make things autonomously, so someone who harnesses AI to make something can, at least in my eyes, claim they made it (AI isn’t just a tool). If and when AI becomes autonomous, the human ceases to be the creator in my view since they are no longer in the creation loop. Then you cannot pretend you made the thing.
