@futurebird I feel like one of the things that annoys me about LLM use is that it’s not being treated in that same manner. You need to be able to check the output of your tools. To use a calculator, you need to understand what you’re doing with it and also the underlying domain: that’s math and whatever you’re trying to apply math to.

There’s other things like the nondeterminism and waste and ethics and how well-formed language biases the brain to thinking the thing that produced that language is both conscious and has thoughts.
