Hey guys wanted to get a community perspective on this. I have found that for all the benefits ai has given me in my work its slowly eroding a lot of the skills I used to pride my self on.
I used to take great pride in my writing and creativity but over the past couple years that skill set has slowly eroded. Writing emails, essays, or even a post on reddit immediately triggers the compulsion to open ChatGPT.
There was a time where I would use this technology just for just tweaking my writing but its dawned on me that I have become completely dependent. Then I started having it rewrite what I wrote in a more refined manner. Then it escalated to me giving a prompt and editing the output. And now i got to the point where I have just started to trust the output without even reading it.
This has pushed me to a place where i struggle to even start an email with out first consulting an LLM.
My question for the community is what are some thing you feel you have seen yourself or others become dependent on AI for to the point they can no longer do it themselves and as a community what do you think are some ways to combat this on a personal day to day level?
P.S. i think this is the first reddit post ive made in 6 months that I didnt use an LLM to help me with (im in too deep)
