I think he's right, and I hate it.

I'm also depressed by his endgame, which he glosses over - LLMs prevent the gradual buildup of expertise through hard, repeated, work.

All our handwriting (and hell, even our grammar) is basically trash, because who can be arsed putting in the time to write beautifully with a pen when you can just fling out an email?

LLMs will cause an analogous decline in code and coders - every codebase a cesspit of messy mediocrity in outputs, authors, and professional culture.

Fuck the future, man.
