The other day I went to talk to some subject matter expert because I wanted an experienced human's knowledge and perspective on my problem. They literally just read me Reddit posts and Gemini search results to answer my questions. Even turning their laptop and being like "see?"
What a waste of everyone's time.
God forbid we think for ourselves and have real conversations.
Maybe they were exercising their experience by identifying valid material. No point rewriting a treatise when some guy's blog already has a perfectly good article.
Again, it was AI answers and a reddit post.
