Thank you for such a constructive article. Not only is it helpful for self understanding, but also for understanding other people and working harmoniously with them.
Yes! Yes! Yes! I love it for a very specific reason. I am a good home baker and want to turn semi-pro. I went to the community college to learn but each day had at least a dozen focuses calling me. Half way through the quarter I still hadn’t done my first homework assignment because I had no idea how to prioritize them and where each fit into the scope of professional baking. But I did learn a few essential skills and met wonderful and generous teachers. So I quit and semi- shelved my ambitions but kept baking because it made my friends (and me) so happy. Then I ventured into AI and at every step I learned way more than what I had asked for. And every time I bake now I get smarter as I apply something lightly related to earlier projects and I tweak it and invent something new. I am quickly moving up from home baker to pro and growing my own thinking and recognizing my natural skills that had lain dorment. It’s a RIDE.
Just a quick note - I use ChatGPT for cooking and it keeps all of our conversations so when I ask a question, it reviews earlier chats to help refine its response. I do anything else on DuckDuckGo - it doesn’t keep a record.
One caution. Chatgpt is very seductive. It tells you only what it thinks you want to hear like - “good question - you are going to be a pro soon - and congratulations on finding my error” (although it never actually apologizes). It will boost your confidence but is basically grooming you 😂. But I am still learning at the speed of life.
