I’m not sure I really have a lot more to say on this topic.

I just think that posting unnecessarily long essays is disruptive to conversation, and I think that LLMs supercharge this propensity, and makes engagement with these posts feel even more useless. As I’ve [said previously in another thread](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/updates-to-the-site-guidelines-especially-regarding-gen-ai/134315/2), I see the guideline about not posting generative AI outputs as really a subset of an existing rule urging people to be concise.

I think that while it often feels like something you arrived at with the help of your LLM is especially clear, the experience of others is often the exact opposite.
