It’s scary how quickly people start to mistake LLMs appeasing them for actual conversation.

Discussing something with an LLM isn’t equivalent to having a conversation with a person. It’s just a text generator trained to show you what you want to see.

Don't assume everyone is like you. I'm an early adopter and I know how to scaffold it. I generally love the bleeding edge in all things, and I'm increasingly sure it's an actual talent to be able to quickly adapt to unfamiliar things (this includes not making assumptions).
