The article distinguishes between two types of auto-reply systems for tweets: the bad version (fully automated, canned responses that ignore context) and the useful version (AI-generated replies that are reviewed by a human before sending). The key insight is that automation should remove the drafting effort, not the human judgment involved in deciding whether and how to respond.
