Yes, this is why I use them, but try not to apply the suggestions blindly. So as time goes by I need to depend less on those..

Even worse is the "true believers" who without any sort of justification will just declare that "everyone is cooked!"..

It doesn't actually understand anything...let alone code. And I think you are the one who is in denial.

> it's looking like assessment and evaluation are massive bottlenecks. So I think LLMs have moved the effort that used to be spent on fun part (coding) into the boring part (assessment and evaluation) that is also now a lot bigger..

The whole shtick of LLMs is that it can do stuff without telling it explicitly. Not sure why people are blamed because they are using it based on that expectation....

Maybe, but that does not mean that it is possible to work around evolution to change ourselves to fit better with the new constraints.

An always full alert immune system won't have any lee way to address any onset of an infection, and also considering that pathogens also evolve to by pass the increased alertness, this will probably be catastrophic for the species. Tha

It does not negate the knowledge that we do have. But we should also acknowledge that certain undertakings are impossible to do safely with the amount of knowledge that we do have.

Don't we have a problem of ever increasing auto-immune diseases? If we know "enough" then I think we should be able to make it go away. Until that happens, I don't think humanity can claim to know "enough". Als

It might be guess work, but it has got a ruthless filter called natural selection and really long time to get here. So I don't see your point. It is really tuning for surviving within the constrains.
