I think the author just doesn't know how to use LLMs well. "Because what would be missing isn’t information but the experience. And experience is where intellect actually gets trained." From my experience, LLMs don't cause this effect. You still get to explore a ton of dead ends and whatnot, just on a much higher level. "You get the answer but nothing else (keep in mind we are assuming that it's a good answer)." On the contrary here - you get to answer a ton of followup questions easily, something you don't get to ask books. "I never so far asked GPT about something that I'm specialized at, and it gave me a sufficient answer that I would expect from someone who is as much as expert as me in that given field." LLMs are at a level of junior-mid of any field (and going higher every year), not senior-master. Is that anything new? Their strength is, among other things, in making connections between fields, and also the availability. If you have an option to talk to a specialist in your field that has time 24/7 to discuss ideas with you, that's great, but also highly unusual. If you don't have such a person, an LLM that is junior-mid is way better than plain books.
