religious beliefs aside, there’s something pleasing about living a good life and facing a decent death: closure.

If you have respect for the unique chance of conscious experience of others you get your moral system rather trivially from the first principles. Certainly not worse than an arbitrary religious stick and carrot system.

Unless you subscribe to moral objectivism.

But those are nice ads. Nowadays you get tons of these low/effort-AI-generated ads in YT. They suck big time.

There’s one significant difference between: typewriters and calculators are a one-time-paymeny device. LLMs are subscription based baked by billionaire companies. That alone leaves LLMs in a bad enough place

You have a point, but it is very ironic that this sounds a lot like the old argument "you must still learn to compute by hand because you won't have a calculator with you all the time".

Because there’s not enough learning material? Like most of the code LLMs have stolen for training is highlevel code, not assembly

I want that it looks good. Nostalgia vibe

For the average and mundane stuff, sure do whatever everyone is doing.

For the good stuff, there’s no alternative but to know and to have taste. Llms change nothing.

Nobody cares

It’s time to be AI-independent. It’s like AWS, for most of us, it’s not worth it.

We are not. We are still making money and providing payslips for real humans. We are doing fine
