That was another tard-ass Fat Acceptance “truth.” Diet is better for losing weight, of course. But exercise also helps. Always has been true, always will be.

Time Compression
The best part of LLMs is they allow me to undertake projects that were within my capabilities but infeasible time-wise. Nearly everything I’ve worked on with Claude and ChatGPT I already could’ve done and understand how to do without those tools, but each project sans an LLM would’ve consumed 500+ hours. But with an LLM they were able to be wrapped up in 5-30 hours. That’s a huge improvement.
I am sure the idiot control freaks will try to take it all away soon, to be clear. But for now I have tons of tools and utilities I just wouldn’t have had prior. And that’s pretty awesome.
