Not really, only when looking back at the 60's and 70's when most of the important algorithms I use were invented. For example, LR parsing and A*.
Just wait until the MBA's and politicians learn about this Adam Smith guy. A pipedream now, but maybe in the future schools will be inspired to teach about dialectical reasoning and rediscover Socrates.

Sorry, I'm getting tired of ad-fueled corporations trying to get me to outsource critical thinking.
This is one of the most valuable intellectual skill that humans can develop and is even more relevant in a world where manipulation and misinformation at scale is effectively commoditized. Like you, I'm not going to outsource it to a corpo, and will use LLMs as simply another source to be used critically in learning and/or reaching a decision.
