If a founder hires an engineer who develops a product, the founder is not magically an engineer. He hired the work out.

This isn’t complicated but people struggle to understand it for some weird reason.

If I have someone photograph my wedding, and then sit at my computer, once the pictures arrive to me, distribute the photographs, I’m not suddenly magically a photographer.

I could go on and on. Using an LLM to write a biology paper does not make that person a biologist.

Typing out a request to my friend to write me a poem about chickens with red mittens doesn’t magically somehow make me a poet.

It wild that so many struggle with this basic ass concept.
