How they meant "you": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generic_you https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generic_you How you meant "you": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deixis#Personal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deixis#Personal I have a hunch this is not lost on you though, and you're doing this performatively. Please stop. It is beyond tiresome, and it is not going to compel anybody. On the contrary, it is a great way to induce animosity. I assure you that what you're describing is lost on no one either; rather, unlike you, plenty of people simply do not care, and find this distinction trite at best. Especially when presented this way.

I’m trying to draw a distinction that the person isn’t doing the work, the LLM is. > On the contrary, it is a great way to induce animosity. Sorry, what had you under the impression I was trying to make friends? When people who suck show up to your spot, you make them go away by making it clear they’re not welcome.

Except you were not making things clear. On the contrary, you were pretending that there was ambiguity in their words, which arguably only complicated things. This is a very cowardly and sly way to make any point. Mind you, for the unwelcome people, the downvote and flag buttons are the way to go. Comments are for conversation.

    I’m not interested in being civil with people who actually believe using LLMs give you skills. The same way I’m not interested in being civil with homophobes and flat-earthers.
