If you write either of these 4 emails I hate you.
Why aren’t you writing your own correspondence, I do not understand.
if you have to be that verbose when prompting 'ai' to write an email, just dictate the damn message using speech-to-text.
Especially when responding to someone writing you to express gratitude, using an LLM is super disrespectful IMO. You shouldn't need an LLM to write, "You're welcome, thank you for helping with ____."
Be concise in your emails, that respects a person's time and still gets the message across.
write a reply email to this reply email expressing thanks for expressing thanks, for our earlier email expressing thanks to their thanks
Because many of the people we're forced to interact with in our capitalist society don't deserve the energy.
Even the ones that should, become unworthy because they're restrained by systems designed to maximize profit and minimize liability instead of offering a good service by a human who would normally care.
At least that's the excuse I use to burn a small piece of the planet to ask my boss for vacation in a way that reduces the likelihood he says no.
The answer is to half-ass the email, not use some planet destroying technology to half-ass it for you
Sure I'll half ass the email, get the request denied because I didn't ask Neotropical enough, and now I can't join my family on vacation.
The other alternative is to spend way too long on routine emails with people who don't deserve my care and attention because they're fundamentally the oppressors.
Nah. I'll save my care and attention for friends and family. Half ass shit like feeding the machine with data, and LLM my way into making the people in power behave like decent individuals.
How about don't half ass the important email to your boss that your family vacation is riding on??
My boss can eat my whole ass.... If I had to full ass every worthless bureaucratic transaction I'm mandated to have with him that's all I'd ever do. Miss me with that, I'm not here for that, I have actual work to do.
Besides you're the one who suggested half assing the email. I said I'd let the LLM write it because odds are he's using an LLM to do his job for him anyways. He's not worth the time to half ass or full ass... He gets no ass and I get all my leave requests approved.
Some tasks we're forced to do only deserve slop.
Different prompts result in different responses...*shocked pikachu face*
