I need to start looking into this.

Clearly, I need to add CoPilot to my VSCode setup.

Essentially, the material and structural factors around us shape our ideology.

The Industrial Revolution is a key example of the law of unintended consequences.

More than anything else, it has totally changed the way we think -- adversely, I think.

I'm a big believer in cultural materialism.

Thus far, I have only found LLMs to be as good as StackExchange.

Heck, maybe a little better than that.

There's still some untapped potential.

But, if I try to replace coding with an LLM, I find that, eventually, my directions become more and more specific until it becomes meaningless, if not outright counterproductive to use the LLM compared to just coding things myself.

It's a good learning tool. But, that's where I stop.

I find that mathematicians tend to have the smallest egos -- eccentric as they may be. I think it's because the difficulty of mathematics reminds one of their fallibility.

In school, I typically found the math and physics teachers to be humbler than the others. Not always, but, I couldn't help but notice that trend.

LLMs don't have self-perception, egos, etc. right?

LLMs are becoming a glorified StackOverflow.

They're nice to have around.

But, more and more, I'm discovering the limits of their capabilities.

And, at some point, you're better off just coding yourself, rather than finding more and more convoluted ways of asking for the LLM to code.

Yes, but, 'where' are they better than Intel and AMD?

I'm trying to learn about ISAs.

And, after taking a class and watching a whole bunch of RISC vs CISC videos, I still don't know 'why' Apple Silicon is faster at a lower power consumption than Intel's chips.

Can someone tell me?
