    Looking at it now, it’s obviously very bad, but I remember being very fascinated with GPT2 because it was amusingly bad, but I was also very naïve. I didn’t understand just how bad ai is and how much worse it would become.

    I hate to say it, but I have occasionally used it for programming and it definitely made me a worse programmer. Earlier this year I stopped using it completely and I can tell that I’ve been getting better. I keep hearing people say they’re using ai “responsibly” to catch bugs and speed up tedious tasks and I thought that’s what I was doing too until I stopped using it and realized just how much of my thinking I had surrendered over to the machine.

      I appreciate that sentiment, and much more the indication that I’m not mistaken to choose the “never deliberately run the output of an LLM” path.
