Author here. Not an anti-AI post. It's about the cognitive cost - faster tasks lead to more tasks, reviewing AI output all day causes decision fatigue, and the tool landscape churns weekly. Wrote about what actually helped. Curious if others are hitting similar walls.


Why did you use an LLM to write/change the words in your blog and your post? It really accentuates the sense of fatigue when I can tell I'm not interacting with a human on the other side of a message.



Some of the points raised in the article resonate with me, but I see a lot of trademark phrases inserted by LLMs ("it's not X, it's Y" being the most obvious). Can you share what was your writing process? How much did you write yourself, whether you used LLM to proofread or write the entire text from bullet points, or maybe not at all?


Great post, I certainly feel you. Not just the anxiety but the need to push myself more and accomplish more now that I have some help. Setting right expectations and what is more practical and not every "AI magic post" is worth the attention, has helped me by not being anxious and with the FOMO.


Thanks <3

I've started doing it now, still needs to work on it. Thanks for the tip though, i hope it is working well for you!!


isn't it a bit too ironic that you expect us to read your ai generated slop about ai fatigue?
