Yes, this is what I meant by the calculator part of my comment. You've got some other good examples.

>learning when to ignore AI, learning how to take information and turn it into something practical.

This is what I meant by using LLMs as a tool rather than an end.

How many of us still have to do these things? You either eed to do them or you don’t. If you do, you will learn how or find someone that do.

We still need to calculate numbers and I can say it’s silly if I find someone need to get a calculator to do 5x20. Same if you’re taking hours and multiple sheets of paper for something that will take you a few minutes with a calculator. There’s a question of scale and basic understanding that divides the two.
