I mean... you can't think of any ways that AI could actually generate new value? Or more abstractly, of a way that Jevons' paradox can't apply in the case of AI?

i think by your logic, they only thing that they do that is condescending is to say that an interview is not guaranteed.

people are mentioning that they do this for a reason, which explains away that behavior, so yeah, it kinda does change the fact of whether they are being condescending.

it's kind of hard to tell what your position is here. should people not ask chatbots how to scrape html? should people not purchase RAM to run chatbots locally?

i think in this thread the goalposts were slowly moved. people were initially talking about success being predicted by having the excess necessary to comfortably take many shots on goal. it seems like we've granted that this $250k shot was a one-time thing.

it is true but irrelevant to the original topic that this is more money than the global poor ever see, and that this is more money that most people get to have. i don't think anyone was arguing that this represents zero privilege

The trouble for me is, what is actually "proper form"?

People I've asked, including on the MonkeyType discord, don't seem to have very uniform opinions about it. Lots of fast typists have highly idiosyncratic strategies, as we see in this thread, but trying to get faster than ~150wpm (tested, which translates to more like ~100 in regular settings) feels to me to be limited by hand tension.
