The fact that it could be LLM made me skip reading this. Then I noticed the AI: Amber "tag", which confesses that it's all AI generated but reviewed. Still icked enough (knowing AI's writing style) that I probably won't read it.
Putting aside there's a good chance that it was written by an LLM...
Whilst I don't personally see myself in this story, I think I see others around me in it. Over the weekend there was some calculations that needed to be done, and the people around me were impressed with how quickly they were done in Libre Calc. They had trusted an LLM to do the calculations for them, which turned out to be wrong - because of some details that an LLM couldn't have possibly have understood.
I see people "generating ideas" which are clearly flawed in ways that I have to explain multiple times. Approximately 40 people were tasked to generate ideas, and somehow they all magically came to the same ~10 ideas, which they claim were originally theirs.
The other day I was in a meeting to discuss one such idea, and the person was explaining it by reading the LLM output from their phone. When I pressed them for more details, they then had to ask the LLM to elaborate. They were completely unable or unwilling to engage in any kind of thought process.
I'm no longer sure if I'm somehow getting smarter, or people around me are getting dumber. The AI bubble crash couldn't come faster.
