Yes, this is along the lines of what i have been thinking. Why would anybody listen to a smart machine when someone they feel emotional attachment to make a counter argument? This arguments always assume that people are very rational and will always take the action that will favor them but people routinely do stupid stuff all the time and will defend their right to do those.
For me, It kind of feels like a betrayal. Like I joined this line of work to be around intellectuals all day and work on interesting problems; so it feels weird to discover that most "fellow intellectuals" didn't really care about the work or the process and will just use any tool at all to generate plausible sounding solutions to a problem and wont want to give anything else a second thought.
Its really sad that a platform like this is having problems; they are a better version of leetcode that actually incentivizes users to learn and not just cram solutions.
Exactly what I've been thinking. outsourcing tasks and thinking of problems to AI just seems easier these days; and you still get to feel in charge because you're the one still giving instructions.
