I think it’s absolutely fair to criticize something for potentially being generated via an llm or heavily utilized by such especially when it comes to medial claims.

Reading it I couldn’t help but feel the author relied on ai research tools and is now passing that along to everyone reading as if it’s proven fact. When they link out to an ai search engine that’s not helpful when trying to cite sources.



No. It is false criticism. It is like calling one a witch in historical times. Anyone gets accused of it without hard evidence. For all I know, your comment was AI generated. You relied on AI and are now passing that along. It's not helpful.


We don't really know the author. For all I know, the LLM is more accurate than the specific human, in which case I'd want the article to be written by an LLM.

Saying "LLM bad, human good" is both false and uninteresting.
