"People who don't use AI will be left behind", they say. I can't emphasize enough how much I hate it when I hear/read shit like that because I'm pretty sure, in fact, that what will happen is the exact opposite.

People who rely on AI are the ones who will be left behind. They'll forget how to think, how to write, how to do a simple reliable search, how to tell fact from fiction... they'll forget how to fucking LEARN. I think that's the part that makes me the saddest. What a beautiful thing it is just to learn stuff.

If you think chat GPT can do better than you, why would you just let it? Why wouldn't you aim to be better, to learn how to be or do something that AI would never?
