I agree, and that is the issue. People like us can use LLMs effectively because we are already capable of expressing our thoughts in a decent manner and we can recognize when the output does not make sense. But to know whether the results can be trusted or not, you already need to be one level above that. If one is not capable of producing a coherent argument on their own, how can they evaluate whether an argument they hear is itself coherent? And if one, say because of lazyness, relies on LLMs from their childhood to fill in all the difficult steps, how will they learn how to do it on their own? Practising has always been the best way to learn things.

Well said.
