Did I need to put a citation in for the LLM and am I a noob and a phony for using it?

I think it's OK to use it for generating a README. But would it be OK for writing this article? I think that answer is hell no. I don't want to read LLM-generated content and I don't think I'm alone. We get a lot of it. I think it lacks authenticity and that's super important for both the writer and the reader. LLM-generated writing sucks.
