I share the sentiment here about LLMs helping to surface personal tacit knowledge and the same time there was a popular post[1] yesterday about cognitive debt when using AI. It's hard not to be in agreement with both ideas.

I guess it depends on how people interact with LLM. Cognitive debt may be acquired when people `talk` with machines, asking personal questions, like asking what to answer to the sms from a friend, etc.

It may seem different when people `command` LLMs to do particular actions. At the end, this community, most of all probably, understands that LLM is nothing else than advanced auto-complete with natural language interface instead of Bash.

When a person needs to add trials to the existing billing.

The latter will result a deterministic code after (many) prompts that a person will be able to validate for correctness (another question if they will though).
