> If that's all which is expected of a person - to be a copypastebot for vast forces beyond one's ken - why fault that person for choosing easy over hard?
I wouldn't be mad at them for that, though they might be faulted for not realizing that at some point, the copy/pasting will be done without them, as it's simpler and cheaper to ask ChatGPT directly rather than playing a game of telephone.
They are correctly following their incentives as they are presented to them. If you expect better of them, you need to state why, and what exactly.
Incentive: keeping your job/income. Money: good
Counter-incentive: being replaced by AI will cut your job/income
Expected action: avoid behavior that will get you replaced by AI, eg. copy/pasting tasks directly to/from AI tools without thinking
