For certain things LLMs like DeepSeek have been immensely helpful. As long as you're wording is concrete depending on what you ask it can be really helpful. This is scary because professionals in different areas tend to be incompetent. If a computer that just predicts things and barfs information at me is better at telling me certain information we are in trouble as the human race. Of course I'm careful what I listen to it about and I just see it as software. I think the problem a lot of people run into is they give it way too much credit for certain things and think of it as a person. A lot of the scripts it gives me for talking to people Id never use because it sounds like a robot. So id paraphrase those in my own words if I ever used them. Should I have angst about how dumb the world is getting?

>>33835311It's a useful guide, but you need to cross-check what an AI says. For example, I asked how many Sun-like stars are within 33 light years of the Sun and it said two (there's more like 60).
