    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.

    Sincerely

    Grumpy old fuck

    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.

      "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.

      Yes because you didn't take 2 min to think of precisely the information you need, you see! /s

      This is so dumb. Of course the purpose of learning is to go beyond what you know, including what you do not know that you do not know. It's not even serendipitous, it's just learning.

      Rage bait AI shill gets tiring.

        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

        Yeah, my dyslexia makes sure I read slowly, but my reading comprehension always tested perfectly. Although my ADHD can have me zoning out and reading the same word, line, paragraph, or even page, multiple times...

            You: Wastes 34 minutes of OpenAI's server time and 58 minutes of everyone's time because you don't already know something because you never acrually learned it

            Me: Learned the thing properly so I don't have to spend any time doing that

            We are not the same

            (This is so much worse if they aren't just technical books...)

                    I can knock out Fun with Dick and Jane in 30 minutes flat. So, extrapolate as you will from there. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

                              Back in my school days we just copy assignments from a web that hosted usual school assignments from different places. "ElRinconDelVago" was called.

                              Teachers even had "ElRicon" detection mechanisms as they have now with LLMs.

                              Students always find the way to be lazy and cheese their way over homework.

                                Is there some sort of “they did the math” type place where you can ask people to do math about things? I want someone to do the math on how much CO2 this would likely create

                                    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.

                                      I was jealous they read it in 2 hours. I'd spend 2 hours a night for a week to finish most books I enjoy reading.

                                      Number of times I re-read the same paragraph because I got distracted worrying about bills - 7. That's usually when I have to give up reading for the night when I finish that chapter.

                                        For those of us new to whatever this is, I'm legitimately curious about what a "3-level summary" is.

                                          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.

                                          Everything is a hallucination, just some happen to correlate with reality.
