    Maybe there’s a correlation based on the types of runners who turn to AI training plans versus paying for a coach.

    I have gotten mild injury from running and I definitely think there’s a lot more chance that people get injured my following an AI plan that having a coach.

    A proper coach will make sure you’re not getting injured first before ramping up intensity. An AI will have a tough time conveying the importance of not running through pain. Running through pain is probably the number one cause of injuries.

      Agreed. People have been getting bad training advice on the internet long before LLMs

      Tons of reasons to hate on LLMs, but this is probably pretty minor
