9. Binary thinking (pardon the pun) is pretty common.

And, unfortunately, we are not immune to it.

Like anything, AI can be useful and can be problematic. Context is important, and from what you mentioned, I see nothing wrong with using it for that purpose. I'm not sure why you would have met resistance, other than that some think AI = bad without really understanding it and its potential uses.

There's also a tendency for some to knee-jerk react negatively to anyone with a relatively low post count. That could be part of it.

Try not to let it bother you. On the whole, DU is a net positive.
