This is in line with another quip about AI: You need to know more than the LLM in order to gain any benefit from it.

Above average people can also use it to get average results. Which can actually be useful. For many tasks and usecases, the good enough threshold can actually be quite low.

That explains why people here are against it, because everyone is above average I guess.
