First and foremost, you're complaining about pacing, not writing. Second, that's your opinion and that's fine. Personally, I don't think every single second needs to move the plot forward. I'm perfectly fine with sections of it being transicions or world building or other stuff.
Your opinion's fine though. Just go watch something else. However, you not liking something doesn't mean that it's necessarily bad, nor good.
If the substance really is the only film that gripped you in the past few years, then you either are terrible at picking movies or you just don't really like cinema all that much.
Not really, no. There have been plenty of tv shows for example that have been cancelled due to low audience numbers, despite being excellent. For example, In The Flesh, Mindhunter and Pushing Daisies.
There's nothing "absolutistic" about my "stance". If you're rusty using a language, you won't get better if someone else does the homework for you. Make an effort, make mistakes, write in a way that sounds weird, who cares. But practice. If you only take the easy way out, that'll be your only option in the future.
Although, like I already said, that's MY way of thinking about it. If you want to use ai to write your stuff, you do you. It doesn't negate the fact that, whle it's not "wrong", it's the lazy (or minimum effort) option. Don't know why it bothers you so much.
Second, you're assuming (for some unknown reason) that they "cleaned up" the "translation" using ai. You have literally no idea exactly how they wrote the post. It's kinda weird to make up a random scenario but ok.
Third, no, it's not an awful take. You can code something that requires a ton of effort but write awful documentation. One thing does not make the other impossible.
Fourth, I already explained that there have already been studies that concluded that using AI to write stuff for you has a negative impact on your communication skills. This is not an opinion or me being ingrateful or whatever. I was just sharing information.
Regardless, I specifically said that what you did wasn't wrong or anything likw that. I simply think that it's going to do you more harm than good in the long run. You're free to do whatever you want though, obviously.
Another piece of advice. When someone simply shares an opinion, don't get instantly butthurt over nothing. Otherwise this might as well be reddit.
They said it wasn't their "first" lanugage. Which leads me to believe that they do speak English. If that's the case, then they indeed are kind of lazy. There have already been studies in the impact of AI when used for communication and the results are not positive.
This isn't something I'd personally point out and criticize, just something I wouldn't do personally. Take the time to express your own ideas in your own words. The long term cost is higher than the short term gains.
I cancelled my subscription when they made the copilot plan the default and switched me to it without asking. I'm now selfhosting nextcloud and using libreoffice.
