Worse. Anyone can talk to an LLM. Do your research out of band of social interactions.

Great way to lose your ability to express yourself without help.

like able people deciding to depend on walking sticks

before long their legs are too weak to carry them and tehy need to augment their power with their arms

i mean, duh, really, duh

use it or lose it

people who think AI will make them better will not exercise their natural capabilities.

the end.

and it's gonna be brutal for these clowns. really, you can't use your time to think and write?

maybe you should go dig ditches and and harvest corn and stuff, ever considered that?

I disagree with this premise. For example, corporate culture is inherently fake. I use llms to turn my authentic (blunt) feedback into corpo-speak. This is a net benefit for me because I don't have to come across as an calling someone's baby ugly when I'm simply trying to debate the merits of some architecture, tool choice, policy, etc. And those on the recieving end get to have a "less toxic workplace".

I never so this in my real life as I find most of the people I choice to associate with outside of work have thicker skin.

This just makes you another corporate drone. How about be the one willing to give blunt and honest feedback, even if it hurts feelings?

You don’t have to be “toxic” but you should be real.

Because I'm not going to lose my job for arguing with someone that their implementation of something is bad. For example, someone used basically 3 identical cloud formation templates instead of using terraform and putting in a for each or feature flag. That is genuinely retarded.

So then I use ai to turn "this is retarded" to something more logical.

I get it that it would make sense for me to be able to throw together a coherent argument with citations and such, but that would take me an hour, whereas AI can do it in 5 seconds. There's no benefit to anyone to me redoing research I've already done years ago and my conclusion is basically accepted by the industry as best practice.

There are countless other examples I can apply to this where the answer is "this is just the way it is, if you can't accept that, you're retarded" and I mean that in the literal sense as in, you're slow, catch up with the times. Ignorant would be a better alternative, but has the same effect in corporate world

Meh, I don’t find any of your reasons compelling. There’s real value in building skills of persuasion and technical leadership. Leaving it to AI is robbing you of growth opportunities.

Speaking of 'use it or lose it' the hippocampus of the human brain shrinks a we age, but less rapidly if we exercise it.

This involves not using Google Maps or any other GPS to find your way around, except when you really need it, for somewhere you've never been to before, but remember to rely on memory to find your way back.

For proof of this claim go ahead and research the hippocampi of the drivers who work for the London Black Cab company and "The Knowledge," a test they must pass in order to qualify for working as a driver in this company.
