I never have this problem of people giving me AI responses to my questions.
What I do have a problem with is people who do this:
https://nohello.net/en/
I just say hi back and check my messages again in a half hour. They blew their chance!
I have both and now have both links saved for reference
Hey
It has been an interesting experience telling people who only say hello that they're being rude.
I think autism bit me in the ass again 😭
I used to contract with a company where it was almost ubiquitous for someone to start a text-based conversation with the entire message: "Hey..." — ellipses and everything. It was bad enough that other members of my company that were contracted to the same contract would jokingly add ellipses to random things when messaging each other.
Odd...
...?
Just ignore them. They will catch on eventually.
Yeah, I straight up don't respond until they've asked/said the thing that they're contacting me for.
Usually they finish their thought without me ever needing to respond. I did have one coworker who just... never said anything else. That's also a win.
Are you talking about people just saying "hi" or the meta-behavior of people using nohello.net in their Teams/Slack status? Because the latter is more annoying to me
