Yes I’m sure I’m more productive. I have decades of experience before AI to compare to.
I can only speak to the engineering context not academia, but I would expect there’s similar patterns of busywork. Even the blog authors admit to using AI. AI cant replace thinking but it can replace menial labor, which is prevalent even among “knowledge workers”.
Because there is no appreciable difference between outputs. Most of the work that most of us do isn't important. It's busywork byproducts of making widgets that most people don't even need. So if your job is already pointless why not make it easier using LLMs?
Because I’m skilled enough to use a tool that generates plausible garbage to be more productive than those who don’t use it at making non-garbage.
Are you sure you’re more productive?
Doesn’t sound like these tools should be used to write scientific papers for example and they seem to bamboozle people far more than help them.

Sounds a little sad. I think I’d rather find another job.
So very many of us are underemployed and do meaningless work. IMO these jobs exist to prevent societal upheaval aka revolt
