I wish OpenAI and generative AI as a whole would leave this planet. I'm in 12th grade and all of my peers use it for homework and "studying" (cheating), and I'm the one being teased for "trying too hard for no reason when you could just use ChatGPT". Their brains are genuinely fried. It's terrifying.

I’m seeing many older people in the workforce experience the same thing. I think people will be very frustrated with how hard turning their brains back on will be after leaving them idle for so long
Keep it up, you will not regretting it. In future your focus and decision-making skills will feel like a super power compared to those guys. Is not about doing "that work" is about forging your abilities. You will have a huge vantage then.
I wouldn't expect life to provide justice so clearly. They'll still very often feel that they are impaired in habit and are clinging to a principle.
There are plenty of technologies making the result almost useless, but making their users feel as if they were doing the thing in full. They don't see anything. When they can be demonstrated wrong, they just jam the signal with social means. When there are 5 people doing the same thing, and 1 has something worthy, and 4 have some bullshit, those 4 can just bunch together and yell at the 1 what a disgrace his failure is, and there will be no justice.
So no, that user should realize that for all their life their peers will still think the same, mostly.
Why do they need this person? Can't their AI do this job?
Is ai already taking their jobs?
I don't believe there are any "good ones" in openai. I recently learned it was ilya who suggested the "AI is too dangerous" rhetoric to close down openai.
AI as a field has always been about making life better, not making more money. OpenAI has just made this whole thing sour.
