I would even say it's the opinion we have about others not ourselves. As most prose condemns 'the herd'.

Man those quotes are so clearly AI slop as well. Surface sounds interesting but there is no critical thought behind it.

Seeing that it was written 2+ years ago I don’t think AI was involved a lot. Maybe my memory is wrong but back then it wasn’t all that capable

That should tell you something about how much effort (thinking) is required for the activity. The fact you writing is t something you can do as much as reading means you use your brain a bit more. I would claim that consuming information always uses less thought then generating information. For a human brain at least.

Easier said than done, no asset producing income will do so indefinitely without a lot work/investments.

My S&P 500 fund has done this and will continue to do this without any work or investments of time.

Passive investing is a fairly new phenomenon and we don’t actually know if it works long term. The premise of the stock market is that it’s a market. Blind and wide investment goes against the principles of how investment works. We could be accelerating bad outcomes because we are basically rewarding and punishing companies based purely on momentum, not performance.

Basically, I think it’s possible that passive investment only works when it’s a small slice of total investment. Essentially, then you ride off the expertise and decisions of others.

What happens when it’s the majority of investment? We don’t know.

Did they say it was easy? It's still the right thing to aim for, even if it is a lot of work.

I don't think you can look at the current AI landscape and say any aspect of it is undersold.

I totally disagree. AI is overhyped, but the demos that have impressed me most are things/elements that very few people are touching and that no one seems to be talking about.

the hype is where the money is, as is always -- marketing & porn. Both touched heavily by AI already.

Hey, you need to make your code examples horizontal scrollable on mobile! I could still guess their content based on context clues but still.

You're the first articulating my exact use case with AI as well! It really helps get me in 'the zone'. I actually now dictate as well and then the AI rewrite it and then I start editing. To lower the barrier even more.

Yeah, I've used dictation at times for the same reason.

I don't like how LLMs write. I like how I write.

But I do like that LLMs get me to write. People seem to miss that a lot, because most of the "AI slop" you see is AI-driven, not human-driven. But human-driven writing, with AI as a tool, is a far better way to go about it, imho.

Small correction: it's actually the toggle 'Choice between male and female candidates'

Sorry yes, thanks.
