One of the people I follow posted about something similar on Mastodon yesterday. They happened to be on the same plane as someone who was speaking at a climate conference they were attending, and they saw the person through gap in the seat working on their remarks and using ChatGPT in order to do it.

Sad stuff.

i do have to point out, the plane trip itself was far worse, climate wise, than the vibe writing.

That said, yes I agree, it is of course an extra load, that could be easily avoided.
