Comment on When I was a kid, computers expanded your mind and your freedoms, bringing power to the individual. With AI, now it does the thinking for you, takes your job, gives power only to a few billionaires.

The LLM is absolutely not doing anything thinking for you. It’s can, at best surface someone else’s thinking based on a prompt.

Anyone that confuses what these things do with thinking is on a path towards psychosis.

Every 4 hours spent talking to one of these things is indistinguishable from talking to oneselves for 40 hours. It amplifies one’s inner thoughts in ways that prevoisly only a schizophrenic was able to enjoy.

It absolutely can replace hours of research or programming or drawing with a quick prompt. It does this for me often, and as of the latest Gemini pretty much is always right too.

  None of that is it doing the thinking for you.
  
  LLMs can be used as a research tool but require a human apply critical thinking to the output to be useful.

    It definitely replaced a lot of thinking with vibe coding. And research also requires thinking. Maybe not super intense thought, but it’s thought all the same.

    Literally not thinking.
    
    Artists would also be pretty annoyed to hear that they are doing a brainless activity.
    
    I see you lack critical thinking skills so I understand the confusion. Unfortunately, I can’t fix stupid.
