Learning to be lazy

Dabbling with the new large language models has been particularly delightful when I lean into outsourcing the kind of minor tasks that I'm perfectly capable of doing and yet there's the slightest emotional friction to actually getting it done.
Most recently, I had to send an SMS message from an estate agent to put in an offer on a property so I asked ChatGPT to draft the message instead.
I know. It's ridiculous, truly. The analog equivalent would be handing my phone to a personal assistant and practically dictating to their thumbs.
The result was spot on though, and the removal of that micro effort of re-articulating a few short bullet points into concise but casual prose felt amazing; the sensation was all the more sweeter with the awareness of the indulgence.
What a slippery slope...and I am strapping in for the ride.

I'm trying to get more familiar with the new paradigm of LLMs and other AI formats. They're clearly here to stay, for better or worse; and while I'm old enough to feel a sense of weariness at the effort required to upturn my entire understanding of the impact and reach of the fresh technological possibilities...I'm too young to be able to bury my head in the sand. Our kids are going to grow up in a world shaped by these developments and I want to be on the nobler side of their history if at all possible.

So I'm leaning in. I'm trying to see how useful these new chatbots can be, and part of that is about trying to see how they can be relied upon for even the smallest or mundane tasks.
Back "in my day", I remember having a similar breakthrough moment realising that Google could answer even vague queries like "What's that movie where they sing about letting the sunshine in at the end" . Before that epiphany I would readily have wasted time trying to comb through lists of "movies that were released in the 80s" instead of realising that I could assume a less proactive demeanour.
It fundamentally began to change my outlook on the kind of things that I could tap into crowdsourced / expert knowledge about. I could start the search much earlier in my journey, trying my luck with 'dumber' questions often reducing the need to ask as much in total.

This new generation of interfaces for tapping into knowledge - and soon performing operations with that knowledge - is a promising shot at providing the luxury of a personal assistant for the masses. However, there's some behavioural adjustment required to profit from that when you're used to thinking and executing your life in a self-sufficient manner.

Less what would Jesus do and more what would Yeezus do?
