Do this instead You can use AI. Seriously! It's a great tool for drafting. Just read what it gave to you , then write your own version, or polish the text. Don't be a middleman between it and the answer.

You're still acting as the middle man for the answer. You didn't answer fucking shit. If you, the human being, have nothing to add yourself, stay the fuck out of the conversation. Especially if the questions being posed are asking about other people's personal experiences in something.

Yes, and that paragraph completely contradicts an earlier one.

It might not look like it, but the person on the other side has the same tools you do. If they wanted the generic answer, they'd have it in a couple of seconds.

They're not asking you because they want you to "polish the text" from AI. They could also do that themselves.
