alt Hacker NewsRelatable! Or at least making me feel dumb (at times). Things that help me feel smarter are
* actually writing more on my own - created a personal blog just to get myself to write more
* upleveling my thinking - think more about problems and framing
* leverage my experience - guide (or sometimes force) the AI assistant to leverage my experience to avoid problems
* learning new things - rather than let AI just replace things I can do, I use AI to help me learn new things/technology faster than I would have pre-AI
> learning new things
I wonder lately, doesn't that all new knowledge push out the old knowledge? As in new things replace old things we know. I don't know any studies on this but do we have infinite capacity for knowledge?
What about retaining it? I catch myself asking AI wondering about random things that pop into my head, reading it, maybe using that knowledge once and later no longer remembering what it was. Maybe if you use that knowledge in practice from the get go but projects get so complicated sometimes it seems like there is not enough space in my brain for things AI is learning me.
