This is cool. There is undeniable value in LLMs for inspiration. I think they really augment well the creative tasks.
LLMs are getting a bad rep for not acrediting the authors, but the everyone cannot possibly know about every other source of information.
If you think of LLMs as general corpus of human intelligence, and how they can be used for lateral-thinking, there is nothing quite like it.
We live in unbelievable times.
I get to tell my children "I remember the days without the internet" and in the same monumental shift in history, I feel, I will also get to tell them "I remember the days when we had no AI assistance".

What's also remarkable is the amount of people who refuse to believe.
What's different this time around is that this technology represents competition to people who's intellectual abilities are tied to their career.
Clearly it can't match a human yet. But in the last decade, if you follow the trendline, AI is slowly approaching that point of human replacement. A couple of years ago if you told me that I could step into a car without a driver and it could drive me around the city in SF I would've laughed in your face and told you the technology was a pipe dream.
It won't be a matter of AI assisting all of us, it will be AI assisting a few of us and replacing most of us.
