The problem is people are lazy and most places I’ve been, peoeple make bad commit messages and often very non informative.
I'd rather see no commit message than an AI-generated one.
Also if I wasn't misinterpreting OP, it sounded from the post I was responding to like OP provided a summary to the LLM along with code. If OP's writing a summary anyway, why not just proofread that and use that as the commit message rather than involving an LLM in the middle of the process?
Even in a hypothetical where the company hired human tech writers to write commit messages for developers, I'd rather have in the commit message what the developer had to say rather than the possible misinterpretation of the tech writer.
