On a deeper level than small talk, of course.

    Someone on reddit had an intriguing take for once. The people who are like “ChatGPT revolutionized my work” are people who are just really bad at stuff. I read that comment the other day. And then now if you go to reddit and look at the AI subs, you get stuff like this:

    https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenAI/comments/1lpte80/chatgpt_is_a_revelation_for_me_in_my_work/

    I know the arguments done to death surrounding AI and being a risk to jobs etc. but I work in a very niche area of law and there’s a lot of complex pieces of case law and legislation that deal with it and, frankly, my memory is terrible with retention of this info. I also struggle sometimes with interpreting judgments, specifically when Judgments are written in very complex “legalese” which I’ve always hated.

    It’s a very tempting thesis considering it predicts observation. But I think I would temper it a little bit to avoid ableism or getting too far into technocratic thinking.
