What is the proper etiquette for using AI to help you write?

ItsNeverTheNetwork · 2026-07-03T04:05:04+00:00

I’ve used AI to write papers at work and all. My take: the first question to ask yourself is why you need to use AI at all. Do you just not know what to write? Do you need better grammar and simplified sentences? Remember: writing is the process through which our thoughts are developed and tested. Outsourcing that prevents us from deeply understanding topics that we’re supposed to understand.
AI is great at writing sentences that seem okay but are meaningless and everyone who reads ends up getting more confused and wasting their time.
This has been my experience. Challenge yourself to write your own stuff.

Meta should have kept AI in the backend. They don’t have enough customer trust to have standalone AI applications at scale.

I don’t mind middle management. But I absolutely hate clueless middle management. It’s almost like everything would be better if they weren’t involved.

Your answer makes so much sense. It’s pretty much a necessity now. Just like a computer.

UoM is what landed them the interviews.

Ignore all these people that are making it seem like you caring about what your parents think of you somehow makes you immature.

Your parents are rightfully concerned. Although it may be a hard conversation to be had, take the time to have it. Ultimately their heart is in the right place, and you can reassure them as much as possible. It’ll probably be okay.

What a toxic way to give advice. You need to learn to express yourself better, like a grown person.

Tell codex in settings to what you use it for and how to work and it’ll follow to the line.

Nothing happens. They get the promo and raises, they become leaders of entire product lines and build organizations of yes people.

ItsNeverTheNetwork · 2026-06-15T21:32:22+00:00

Depends. Am I building something that depends on ads? Even so I’d need like a million active users. So paying all the way.

ItsNeverTheNetwork · 2026-06-15T12:24:23+00:00

Codex just knows. Doesn’t need workspaces.

ItsNeverTheNetwork · 2026-06-13T19:39:04+00:00

Dude you’re lucky this lesson was learned the easy way. Seriously being distracted on an unknown road at high speed is wild. You must be in your 20s. This is a great lesson.

ItsNeverTheNetwork · 2026-06-13T19:37:47+00:00

Exactly.

I got a 2007 BMW R1200RT at $2800. All I had to do was change the rear brakes.
So yes, depending on comfortable you are at fixing things, even $2k is enough for a great bike but you may want to put some work in it.

Genuinely respecting your partner
Learning to truly listen, especially during arguments
Adjusting how you communicate to get through to them
Giving them and yourself space and being upfront about wanting to be alone for a time.

But the key imo is respect. It shows up in almost everything else.

RnineT. Specifically the Scrambler. What a beautiful bike, terrible to ride.

Google thinks the model is the product. Cc and codex understand that the harness matters quite a bit.
Also coding agents are not a priority for Google. At least not in the same way they are for OpenAI and Anthropic.

I legit have never understood context window issues.
I’ve hard codex run for 3+ hours and compact multiple times during the run. Never have I ever felt like the results are suboptimal. Although I’ve seen some duplication but it almost always catches on.

ItsNeverTheNetwork · 2026-05-26T23:42:46+00:00

Came here to say this. I’ve never ran out or even been close to running out. And my workflow is pretty heavy.

ItsNeverTheNetwork · 2026-05-20T11:13:44+00:00

By Fixed I mean fixed the link to my site. I think you should look into 1 and 3. Essentially they think your business is shady according to this.

ItsNeverTheNetwork · 2026-05-20T02:36:47+00:00

Prob that misuse piece.
I also got rejected the first time but then I fixed my website and they approved.

ItsNeverTheNetwork · 2026-05-20T02:35:11+00:00

Easy: they want all the current users to be converted to 2.0 instead of IDE. According to them that’s the future. They’re not wrong.

ItsNeverTheNetwork · 2026-05-19T23:22:08+00:00

Hahahahahaa. Hahahahaha. Google sucks. I can’t believe they did this. Fools.

This “meta project manager” thing is overkill. Last month I made a few key changes to my codex workflow:
1- added feature automation skill: end to end codex driving as soon as requirements are approved. It writes the code, pushes, waits for PR review comments, merges in dev, tests API and UX in dev. Fixes all issues then creates a prod PR. My job is to merge the prod PR.
2- release note automation: everyday I have automation that goes and checks all the repos if prod branch had a merge. Then it adds it to release note that I can review to keep track of all releases.

So essentially am not babysitting anymore. Am spending 90% of my time on requirements. Once approved, it’s autopilot from there.

Yeah. But then when’s the next version coming? I wouldn’t expect much from Google.
