I don’t quite get the equivalence there.
It’s garbage insulting your intellect and personal relationship with the sender. Whereas an unsolicited dick pic is garbage insulting your eyes and personal relationship with the sender.

I don’t quite get the equivalence there. I’d say an LLM response is more on par with responding with a link to lmgtfy.com or something.
The intellectual equivalent of sending someone a dick pic would be a cold contact with LLM-generated text promoting or pushing something that you didn’t otherwise show interest in. Or like, that friend from highschool who messages you out of the blue and you realize after a few messages that they’re trying to sell you their MLM garbage.

They’re both garbage, sure, but I wouldn’t call it an equivalent. Especially in severity–one is insulting, the other is sexual harassment.
The key word is “unsolicited.” An LLM response to a question you ask is garbage, but it’s solicited garbage. Like asking someone in Home Depot where the hammers are, and having them take 10 minutes for them to look it up on their phone. It’s a stupid response, but it was solicited. It’s at least a lazy attempt to respond relevantly, however insulting.
woosh.

Or just sending the link to chatgpt.
