So telling someone to make a table for you is more human than making it yourself, because you're using natural language instead of saws and hand planes?

I would say yes, conversing between two humans, maybe even collaborating, is more human than a solitary human using inanimate objects.

Basket weaving is more human than conversation. Language is entry level artificial man.

Even if the table collapses down badly instead of doing a proper one with a good set of tools?

[HeatrayEnjoyer]

But the extension works, not "collapses down badly."

[spacebacon]

I can't know how To hear anymore about tables

[tclancy]

Have you seen me work?

[ok_dad]

Yes, I build furniture for my wife’s designs. Without her my furniture wouldn’t exist. I’m the LLM in this case, capable of building things but not furniture design.

That's a bad comparison. You have to compare crafting a table manually to doing it via CNC.

Commissioning a craftsman you respect to make custom furniture to your taste and specifications sounds human enough to me.
