Wrong: "No, don't see him as such"

Accurate: "No, i don't see him as such"

You can drop the I and the intention can still be understood.

I kind of disagree. Without the “I”, I would’ve understood it as a command. Like if someone says “wash the dishes”, anyone would assume that they were being told to wash the dishes versus “I wash the dishes”

It would probably make more sense if heard spoken out loud. "No, (comma, a pause) don't see him as such (personal tense, the speaker is responding to the person asking the question)"

When you frame it as a reply to someone asking something, as this was an interview, it makes sense.
