AI doing the work for them is just someone else doing it for them. confuses "I know a guy who can draw" with "I can draw." they still can't unless it's done for them. teaching is often what we won't do for them (point isn't showing we can do it), discomfort they grow in. AI sells skipping discomfort
A person using chatgpt will never get better at the activity than they were the day before they started using it.
They will literally have removed learning, and gaining experience, from the process in a way no actual tool does.

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

La femme dont l’épilepsie est déclenchée par des serviettes
La moitié des crises sont déclenchées par la vue, le toucher, la pensée ou l’odeur des serviettes. Le contact d’une serviette à n’importe quel endroit du corps est susceptible de provoquer une crise

i'm starting to think that making the guys that make video game graphics cards a load bearing pillar of the entire american economy might have been a bad move

this is gonna be a weird meta post but posting about why htmx isn't working for me yesterday made me think about how when I don't _like_ a programming thing, often it means there are some _skills_ I'm missing
(or of course that I have a different use case, but I want to talk about skills!)
