The issue with LLM copypaste by non-expert humans, and it took me a while to realize this, is ego.
What they feel like when they do it: "Man, I'm fucking brilliant. Look at me using new technology well. I was always the key provider of value here."
What they hear when you call out AI copypaste as less useful: "None of that is true."
Now we can debate on the factual merit of both sides, but that doesn't change the feelings.
Unfortunately, I don't see a way to change the feelings, because that dopamine burst of making non-experts feel like experts is something all the AI labs have a HUGE financial incentive to maximize in their products.
