Article about how a lot of LLM use is probably not good for you (as if that wasn’t already obvious if you used these things for more than 2 seconds)

What I keep coming back to is McCarthy’s refusal to offer John Grady an easy out. He doesn’t get to be right and win. He doesn’t get to reject modernity and find some pastoral sanctuary where his skills still matter. He just gets to be good at something beautiful while the world moves on without him.There’s a question buried in that: what does it mean to keep practicing a craft you love when you suspect it’s dying?
