      And at the end homie still has no idea which parts of the information came from real books and which was just a hallucination.

      People like this don't care about the truth and just want signal shaped noise.

        "Well structured query" is what got me.

        If I read up on a subject for two hours, chances are I am going to learn things that have nothing to do with the original problem.

          Okay, but what about the last 60 minutes? Is this not a side by side comparison?

            The AI told them that 2 minutes + 58 minutes > 2 hours, and apparently they believed it (perhaps bc 60 really is a higher number than 2?🤪).

            MANAGEMENT MATERIAL, PROMOTE THIS PERSON IMMEDIATELY!!!

                Depends on book, how absorbed you are, how much time you have to put aside, etc.

                Everyone does everything at their own pace, don't feel threatened. That's a mug's game

                    I'm mostly being facetious, I love to read, but I tend to read a lot of nonfiction shit like Chomsky or Stephen Kinzer. I'm not worried that I'm dumb, I am a little shook about the idea of finishing a book in 2 hours though honestly.

                        Dang. They're publicly announcing that they're proud that they don't read.

                              this actually terrifies me.

                              School isn't supposed to be "won" it's supposed to teach you shit you'll need later in life. Getting stuff wrong is part of the learning process. If all students do anymore is type LLM prompts they are fucking themselves up in the future. And they are fucking up other people's future as well.

                              But honestly I could be completely wrong - LLM prompt writers may become a big salary job and actually knowing anything will be passe and not necessary. I just don't want to live in that world.

                                Ime most people who report to read very fast tend to absord less information. They also seem to spend less time picking apart the details and mulling them over. For me a big part of reading isn't really reading but thinking in-between moments of reading

                                        Worse, they're glorifying the loss of critical thinking and analytical skill that would've been gained from reading. They aren't just becoming perfect con marks, they're loudly, and PROUDLY crippling themselves intellectually in an effort to appear "cool" today.

                                        They're literally wagering their own intellectual future against the hope that what effectively amounts to a drugged-up version of Clippy will, against all common sense, decency, and economic theory, become so mainstream and ubiquitous that Humanity as a whole ends up relying on them for everything.

                                        It's complete and utter madness.

                                          Is there a non-religious version of the Amish or something? That lifestyle seems more and more appealing,. This AI stuff really isn't leading anywhere good.
