Interesting. I have found my mental acuity improved by bouncing ideas off AI, and then critically considering how it responds. This is not unlike bouncing ideas off a person, except that AI is always available. And it has savant syndrome. I don't trust it to do anything I can't do.

This ap-pears to be a classic case of projection. Is the pear sad, or is it really you?

The next stage is: how can I use AI to clarify and express MY thoughts and ideas effectively and efficiently. AI works much better as a collaborative tool than as a replacement.
