I’m not going to argue against using tools to expand your capacity - remember random ideas, talk stuff through as if you were having a conversation with yourself, etc. - but writing is inseparable from actually thinking and arguing, they’re not different things you can automate

I think "the world without the Internet" (or LLMs) would be so different from the one we have that it's extremely difficult to have a meaningful conversation about it, but either way, this is an excellent thread.

"if the students can use a LLM to do the task it was never really teaching critical thinking to begin with" is a very dumb take, sorry. I can bring a forklift to the gym and bench press more than Arnold. The point is not to move the weights.

in 2016 a group of strangers in Kazakhstan saved a dog from drowning by forming a human chain to reach him. they just unveiled a statue commemorating the event and I'm genuinely about to start sobbing

There is, and I cannot emphasize this enough, no place or time on Earth where you could grab two random people separated by 1,000 years and they would recognize each other as the same.

this has been haunting me all day the difference between "exploitative capitalism" and "fully automated luxury communism" is who gets the benefit of improved technology literally nothing else, the technology itself fundamentally cannot be and is not either capitalism or communism

I swear to God, nobody ever reads the charts Leftists DO vote for Normie Dems! In these polls, 90% of socialists, 95% of progs say they'd vote for Kamala Harris. A higher rate of libs & centrists ("Normie Dems") DON'T vote for Dems. They vote Rep instead, 2x worse! 👉 Centrists are the problem 👈

I don't feel qualified to evaluate how well an opinion mirrors authentic originalism because I think originalism is already inauthentic. It's like asking me if THESE reiki crystals are REAL reiki crystals. Skip me with that bullshit and leave it for FedSoc's Chick-Fil-A bag lunches.
