Unfortunately, many people don’t have those and just use AI as a substitute for their own brain.

Yeah well same applies for a lot of tools… I’m not certified for flying a plane and look at me not flying one either… but I’m not shitting on planes…
But planes don’t routinely spit out false information.
If you can’t fly a plane chances are you’ll crash it. If you can’t use llms chances are you’ll get shit out of it… outcome of using a tool is directly correlated to one’s ability?
Sound logical enough to me.
Rearranging text is a vastly different use case than diagnosis and relevant information retrieval

Rule of thumb is that AI can be useful if you use it for things you already know.
They can save time and if they produce shit, you’ll notice.
Don’t use them for things you know nothing about.
