I'm not anti-AI. I'm just pro-thinking.

What do I mean? I mean that everyone I know who is REALLY into AI uses it for reading EVERYTHING longer than 1000 words.

This is the mental equivalent of eating only smoothies, because they go down easier.

I say this with love: reading is thinking.

Stop letting slop think for you.

@raiderrobert i rarely use LLM not for fun, but one of cases i consider using it is to dehydrate unnecessarily large text. You know all this instructions «how to change light bulb» starting with 3 paragraph on what is light bulb, what is light, why we use them...

@mrclon I use scrolling for that :)

Also I think the ability to skim over large texts is quite important skill so I try to preserve it.

@raiderrobert

@shuro It is a skill because your brain will spot and stop at key words, plus an unused brain is like any muscle, it will deteriorate.
It will be interesting to note a rise in early dementia cases in about 20 years.
