"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Key points

AI subtly erodes our cognitive strength by making delegation seem like self-generated thought.
After repeatedly turning to AI for answers, the first thing that erodes is tolerance for not knowing.
True judgment is built by wrestling with uncertainty, not outsourcing discomfort to machines.

Personally I wouldn’t call the effect subtle

Were these key points written by a human?

Not knowing is what makes us human.

I think this capacity for "productive discomfort" has an older name that feels almost out of date. It's patience

Fuck. Most of the problems in my life seem to be addressed by the most simple and difficult things I've heard a thousand times, yet fail to adequately incorporate into my life ("patience is a virtue", "drink water & eat vegetables", "stay active" etc.)
