An llm is a tool, I had access to Claude too but I didn’t find the bug. The author found it.

Research taste, among other things are still abilities that differentiate among humans.

In fact, I expect the elimination of other limiting factors by AI to lead to those becoming more important. By the same mechanism that make ugly hedge fund managers more performant.

The problem then is that composition of the top performers will change. Which is problematic since being a top performer ( ‘artist’, ‘researcher’, ‘writer’,..) is often an identity which ‘we often create to protect ourselves: the strong one who never breaks, the intelligent one who is always certain... The mask that once protected you can eventually become the cage that prevents you from changing’

    I do have to send input to the thing to get a response, no?
