If writing something is too tedious for you, at least respect my time as the reader enough to just give me the prompt you used rather than the output.
Prompt: here are 5 websites, 3 articles I wrote, 7 semi-relevant markdown notes, the invitation for the lecture I'm giving, a description of the intended audience, and my personal plan and outline.
Output: draft of a lecture
And then the review, the iteration, feedback loops.
The result is thoroughly a collaboration between me and AI. I am confident that this is getting me past writer blocks, and is helping me build better arcs in my writing and lectures.
The result is also thoroughly what I want to say. If I'm unhappy with parts, then I add more input material, iterate further.
I assure you that I spend hours preparing a 10_min pitch. With AI.

You have less interest in sifting through multiple articles and wiki pages sent to you by a stranger with a prompt than the one paragraph same stranger selected as their curated point.
And pretending like you’d act otherwise is precisely the kind of “anti ai virtue signaling” that serves as a negative mind virus.
AI is full of hype, but the delusion and head in sand reactions are worse by a mile
No pretending here. I don't ever ask an LLM for a summary of something which I then send to people, because I have more respect for my co-workers than that. Nor do I want their (almost certainly inaccurate) LLM summary. It's the 2020s equivalent of "let me Google that for you": I can ask the bag of words to weigh in myself; if I'm asking a person it's because I want that person's thoughts.

"If comprehending something is too tedious for you..."
Seriously, don't jump to indignant rhetoric before you're sure you've understood the discussion.
You might as well publish the prompt you were going to give to the writer and have the ai reader consume that directly.
Assuming you think any of this is a good idea of course. Personally I wouldn’t trust ai to interpret release notes for anything that i cared about
The original commenter was essentially describing something similar to what good agent harnesses already rely heavily on.
