Honestly when I read comments about how LLMs will make us all dumb, all I can think of is Steve Jobs telling people they're holding it wrong.

There hasn't been a subject that's gotten me thinking as deeply as LLMs in a minute, and I don't even work at the implementation level.

Just coming up with novel ways to use them is a delightful brain exercise that requires ways of thinking that you don't normally exercise just writing code. And since I started interacting with ChatGPT for example, primarily through APIs rather than the web interface, I've started to scratch a mental itch that "normal" programming hand long since stopped for.
