The only time you're wasting is time you could be improving yourself. By having the AI write for you, you're choosing to not improve your writing/research/analytical skills, and hoping the dipshit bot that's writing your essay doesn't just make bullshit up out of whole cloth.
I'm not saying not to use the AI to assist with the process, but IMO that should be more on the gathering sources side than the composition side.
Not everything is improving.
These last week I had to make some questions about a topic to test myself, and to practice answering those questions.
I don't need to improve in "question writing skills" or anything like that. Even better, it's very convenient to not known what questions would I get so it's more like a real exam. So I just took an LLM inputted the topic I wanted to be asked about and told it to make me questions.
I'm very happy with the results, it was fast and help me practice answering the questions about the topic I was studying.
I don't need to "improve myself" at every task I ever take. Rather save the time and then chill on the beach with a pint instead.
It's so strange to see folks randomly adopt this hardcore grindset mentality when AI is mentioned.
the only thing i'd improve at is to pull words out my ass to get the presentation to 10 minute length although everything could be said in 3 minutes. i use AI to take care of the bullshit, then i fact check and improve/rewrite. that way i didi in 20 minutes what others took hours to do
