Meanwhile just a few minutes ago in an issue on a project not mine, I just wrote a simple 3 step set of directions answering another users problem. (how to get the Voice audiobook app to appear in Android Auto when installed from Fdroid instead of google play.)

He takes that, tells claude to add it to his docs, claude mangles my correct manually written directions and spits out a garbled and nonsensical version, and the project owner just throws that right into his docs.

Like where do you go from there? Even when you don't use any ai someone else just uses it upon you. It's like a bizarre new form of Bowdlerization.

Everyone sucks on all sides as far as I can tell. I really don't understand why people are accepting this paradigm of using ais for everything. Is everyone really that incapable of resisting the whatever it is you get from giving orders that they don't even care what results from the orders, just make me feel like I caused a lot of stuff to happen.

This is all so self-inflicted too.
