    A worrying number of my colleagues use AI blindly. Like the kind where you just press tab and not even look. Those who look spend a second before moving on.

    They call me anti-AI, even though I’ve used chatGPT since day 1. Those LLMs are great tools, but I am just paranoid to use it in that manner. I rather it explain to me how to do the thing instead of doing the thing (at which it is even better).

    EDIT: Typo

      Those LLMs are great fools, but I am just paranoid to use it in that manner.

      Exquisite typo. I also agree to everything else you said.
