The thing is, there's this cap on patience and on being kind to one's body, and on listening to one's inner cues. It's "within reason".
As in "eat when you're hungry, until you're full - but within reason".
Or "Of course you shouldn't push yourself too hard when exercising" - but the unspoken rule is that this is "within reason" too. It doesn't apply to things that abled people don't consider exercise. If you struggle with everyday tasks, you have to push yourself harder, no exceptions.
I'm sure there are lots of messages out there about taking breaks and resting and such. But they break down for disabled and chronically ill people and people who are on the slippery slope that leads there.
If you're well enough (privileged enough) that rest will restore you and that you can fit enough rest to restore you into your schedule, then that's ok. But if that doesn't work anymore, that's when people need MORE rest. And we can't get it.

I'll open by saying that I'm not anti-AI. I think it can be a net positive. Take my own profession, information security: the world is worse off because most code out there hasn't been looked at by a security engineer. LLMs can automate finding security bugs, so we can get better software for less.
But then, I have to square this with the fact that one of the first casualties of AI were “bug bounty” programs that paid people to report security flaws. LLMs could produce plausibly-sounding reports long before they could find real bugs. Unscrupulous “researchers” figured out they could extract money from the 5-10% of vendors who were not paying attention by slop-bombing us all and wasting everyone’s time.
When it comes to social media, there’s a similar dynamic at play. Human writing, good or bad, was inherently rate-limited; LLM output is not. If someone spent hours or days writing an article, it clearly mattered to them and I could spare minutes of my time to read and engage. For LLM output, this no longer holds. There’s an infinite supply of content entirely disconnected from the human condition that still demands your attention and time.
In contrast to infosec, social media engagement isn’t utilitarian: you gain nothing if you read 1,000 machine-generated opinion pieces a day. Promoters say that it shouldn’t matter who or what is doing the writing — you should only ask if the output is good. To me, quality is secondary. I come here to talk to humans, not to yell into the probabilistic token-void.
Yes, there are rare exceptions, there are people who use LLMs as an assistive technology, and so on. But in 99% of the cases, if you couldn’t be bothered to write it, I won’t bother to read it. Default deny.
