Reading is thinking, and afterwards, writing is thinking. Doing an "AI" summary eliminates thinking in both steps.
A doc told me some of her colleagues are using "AI" to write their case notes. Her take: oh hell no, because writing the case notes is when you think about the case.

Le gap entre les délires que Claude Code me fait avec Sonnet 4.5 et les takes éclatés au sol que je lis ou entends (ex: un prompt ... AI engineer peut remplacer toute une équipe) me confirme que la majorité de notre industrie n'a aucune idée de ce que c'est de faire un logiciel facile à maintenir.

Donc MrPhi fait une comparaison erronné entre un ensemble hétérogène d'êtres humains et un LLM et ça va passer crême ...
Comme quoi son take down virulent de Luc Julia s'analyse surtout à son émotion et ses biais sur les LLMs.

TBM 389: Overthinker!
From a young age, being accused of “overcomplicating” or “overthinking” things felt like a dismissal of who I was.

If you booted up a super-smart AI in ancient Greece, fed it all human knowledge, and asked it how to land on the moon, it would respond “You can’t land on the moon. The moon is a god floating in the sky.” How would you get it to realize the moon is actually a big rock?

Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.
