Tons of people in their 30s and beyond, who graduated from high school before chatgpt existed use it nowadays as if their lives depended on it.

For many people, thinking is something they gladly will pass onto something that's not their own head.

Yeah, it's honestly insane to me how many people at my company use it for everything. They receive an email from someone, complain how it feels very "written by Ai", only to then use Ai themselves to write a reply...

And it's not like they're difficult emails, it's the type of email I can write myself in less than 5 minutes. I really don't understand why people are the way they are now.

I just give direct feedback to people that do this to me: "next time, please just give me the bullet points you fed to the prompt" or "please add 'Be succinct. No commentary' to your prompts in the future"

It actually helps. Explaining that their wall of LLM inflated text isn't helping and that I will just ask another LLM to deflate it usually gets the point across.

Right? Isn't it that the old steel doesn't have trace radioactive particles, and therefore can be used to detect radioactive particles or something?

It's called low-background steel, and how right you are. Traces of nuclear fallout have fuck-all to do with the steel's structural integrity.

Still get the overall point of the OP; we all have latent misconceptions waiting to get us mocked. Nobody sits on a pedal stool above everyone else in that regard.

You leave my evil out of this you son of a bitch!

Fun fact: radiation can actually make steel weaker. After decades of being in a reactor, anyway

AI is cancerous, honestly.

But it's also cancerous at all ages, so many of our generation are getting those isotopes in their steel too.
