here’s how I use LLMs to help me with my personal projects 1. run into a problem I think is hard 2. think “i bet an LLM could do this for me” 3. remember that that means i can do it myself 4. then do it myself

    @nicole@tietz.social By the time AI becomes useful and relevant on a commercial scale, we will probably be it's target as the rich use it to harvest more bipedal fodder for their walled cities

    @nicole@tietz.social I'm hopeful you'll very soon see that number two is, exactly, shit and this option choice is ruining critical thinking for the species. Number two is shit. Recognizing the shit that it is also eliminates number three so you're already twice as efficient.

  • @nicole@tietz.social here is how I use LLMs to help me with work projects 1. Run into a problem 2. Realize I have about 100 other things I have to get done yesterday 3. Breath a sigh of relief when the LLM gives me an answer in a minute or two 4. Get to work on the other 99 things my boss is on about

  • @nicole@tietz.social Sometimes an LLM can be useful to help generate ideas. And then I realize a duck duck go search can do the same. 😂

    @nicole@tietz.social I liked it back when I was just mostly ignoring computers. You had to talk to actual people. It was pretty good.

    @nicole@tietz.social I have to use it for work, because they demand it, so I do an alternative version: 1. Run into a problem I think it hard. 2. Run something in Claude to see what it thinks 3. Realise that I already knew how to do it. 4. Do it myself.
