It's important to bear this in mind whenever you find out that someone uses an LLM to summarize a meeting, email, or other communication you've held. That person is not really getting the message you were conveying.

That's a scary thought to me. They're not just outsourcing their thinking. They are actively sabotaging the only tool in their arsenal that could ever supplant it.

I've felt it myself. Recently I was looking as some documentation without a clear edit history. I thought about feeding it into an AI and having it generate one for me, but didn't because I didn't have the time. To think, if I had done that, it probably would have generated a perfectly acceptable edit history but one that would have obscured what changes were actually made. I wouldn't just lack knowledge (like I do now) I would have obtained anti knowledge.

You've gotta be careful using "not just X, but Y" these days ;).
