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 Why would anyone externalise their personal development to a machine?

Machines should help you make better stuff, not replace your thinking.

@gimulnautti I think the lesson of the car is helpful here. People like being able to do the same thing with less work. Externalities and personal consequences easily take a back seat to that.
