#228Andreas Kirsch 🇺🇦@BLACKHCTbf you can ask Gemini: "do you think I understand this now?" If it says yes, we're done.
Understanding is just a vibe: as long as you stay connected to an LLM to answer any additional questions it's fine and you understand
Logan Kilpatrick@OfficialLoganK"you can outsource your thinking, but you can’t outsource your understanding" easy to forget in todays AI era, worth remembering everyday as we all wield more intelligence!
