Why disparage AI while attributing ideas to AI when written with it?


This is something that I see done all the time on social media.

If you write up an idea you had with AI, people will say that the idea came from AI. And yet these same people will also disparage AIs abilities.

This seems contradictory to me.

Because LLMs are expert liars?

Another point is AI should be so advanced that only one shotting the solution is truly considered as AI.

90% of everything is crap. Sturgeon's Law. We produce crap all the time and yet expect AI to be perfect the first time. Have they ever seen the first draft of any book?

That's presumably because you said AI helped you with the idea.

These same people will disparage AI's abilities

Where's the contradiction? Ask an AI to rephrase your question so that it makes sense.
