*A lot* of talking in this episode. It's boring.

My most favorite subgenre of AI stan is the "AI software engineer" [programmers aren't engineers, engineering has formal requirements like e.g. engineering ethics].
Their logic goes like this:
"LLMs can generate a TODO-list application that pretty much works and only has a few hundred subtle bugs; therefore—as programming is the hardest and by far most intellectually taxing occupation that a human being such as myself can strive for to be an expert in—they obviously will excel and far outshine any human at any of those other, lesser, activities such as writing or art!"

"I think the most liberating thing I did early on was to free myself from any concern with my looks as they pertained to my work."
—Meryl Streep

A NotebookLM user myself, good description why it is such a good tool.
I tried replacing ChatGPT with NotebookLM — and it changed how I research https://www.xda-developers.com/replacing-chatgpt-with-notebooklm-changed-how-i-research/

"I think when you're just counting on your voice, you actually need double the energy. I find myself acting out the scenes and being very physical while I'm recording because I think you can tell when someone is just sitting on a stool."

Using well-chosen public sources, i let NotebookLM and Kimi K2.5 generate a presentation on a subject, amazing quality and very few errors. Good inspiration for the real presentation i will make myself. AI is not only creating "slop", we have to really start more research about how we incorporate AI in our work-processes in a responsible way, how we don't become "dumber", maintain skills, learning and human creativity 🤔
