I thought about doing that, but I decided not to. I'm just afraid of forgetting that people are different from these LLM tools. I'm afraid of considering people dumb or uninteresting because they don't sound as smart as Claude or whatever.

I think that is a very valid attitude also.

My take is that people deserve to be treated with respect because they are people, not because they are smart and/or interesting. I don't treat people differently based on their IQ.

But, as I said, I totally understand your point of view, particularly the idea that people are different from machines and deserve to be treated differently.

That’s an interesting point too. I just don’t think I’m equipped to compartmentalise well enough.
