I don't think that people forget, but it definitely gets normalized. It's disgusting, but many people obviously embrace it, and since to order ChatGPT to do some lame stuff for them is by design orders of magnitude faster than actually create something, the internet is getting filled up by lame stuff every passing minute now.

But it's not like this only happens because of LLMs. If you worked in corporate culture you most definitely received some automated HR emails congratulating you with spending half of your life at the workplace, or something like that. I always felt almost insulted by these, they are literally just spam at best. It's kinda mocking: these are generic depersonalized texts that no one actually wrote for you, yet they always speak about "gratitude", about you being "valued" and such. In fact, it's the only thing they are meant to express: you being valued. It's so cynical.

But, I mean, it's just me. Ostensibly, these folks in HR department do know their job? Maybe most people don't feel like vomiting when they get these emails? Maybe it brings them joy? I never stopped wondering about that. I cannot just ask the closest coworkers, because of course they feel the same as me. But maybe there are other ones? Another social bubble, where this thing is normal, and it is bigger than mine?

Anyway, everyone is kinda used to it. What I am trying to say is that the phenomena is not entirely new, and LLMs don't change the essence of it. Even back when people sent paper mail to each other, I remember these pre-printed birthday/christmas cards, which are ok, because the entire point is that they are not automated and that you remember to send it to someone, yet it was always considered a bit of a poor taste to not add a sentence of yours by hand.
