> i dont think people are so stupid as to feel this way. It didn't happen with cars - you could travel hundreds of miles in less than an hour with it, where as without it, you can barely do 5. And yet people have never made the mistake that they could travel that fast themselves. But cars are in a totally different category insofar as they do one very specific thing and are bound by very obvious physical limits. Our own physical limitations are very obvious to us, our intellectual limitations, I think, are less so. Further, companies (I think knowingly) market AI (read: llm chatbots) as though it's some general, infallible solution to all intellectual and digital content problems. This is obviously not the case, and if you use a chatbot to work in a domain in which you have any expertise whatsoever, you'll quickly uncover this. The problem is people without expertise using these tools and being fooled into thinking they've plumbed the depths when they haven't tread past the shallows. Physically speaking, your capabilities are very apparent when you attempt to run 100mph and simply *cannot*. Realizing you cannot do something or don't understand something correctly intellectually is a far different scenario.
