I'm going to start calling AI gurus and AI disciples "devos".
Because they *are* de-evolving. They are surrendering their evolutionary progress to LLMs.

I'm not sure how old you are, but do you remember having to memorize phone numbers and addresses? Once we got cellphones, we offloaded all of that onto them, and now most of us can't remember seven (or ten) digits to save our lives. Me included.
@angiebaby Stuff like that I get.
But, I'd argue that for most things that are important, we'd still retain that information.
I know what my wife's and my mom's phone numbers are.
I'm probably even one of a handful of people that can remember my own license plate number.
I believe there is a delicate balance to the information that we retain based on its importance.
It doesn't bother me if I don't remember a friends number because they wouldn't be who I'm calling if I get pinched.
@angiebaby I like to ask people who hold this hardline stance in what capacity are they devolving?
People keep saying this, but every bit of evidence I've seen to this has been has been of people who never had what was claimed to be lost in the first place.
The only thing I've seen happen is people being exposed for the frauds that they are because they can't produce the skills they claimed to have had at the beginning.
