See, a teacher will give you a task to solve, preferably on your own, to teach you a thing. They won’t give you a task and the solution so you can look at the solution and go “ah, yes, I understand”.
A good teacher will do that. And even the best teacher can’t force you to learn if you don’t want to. LLMs can be a powerful tool for learning if you’re sufficiently motivated.
We’re obviously talking about ideal situations because it is impossible in a normal conversation to acknowledge every single aberration. Regardless, if you learn by looking at the solution and going “i understand”, you’re doing yourself a disservice.
actually the last time i talked to claude was the day i was committed to the psych ward. i was just fucking with it, but i fucked with it a little too hard, and it refused to respond to me because it said i was dangerously insane
so if you want the AI to shut the fuck up for a little while, that’s what you do
Cool, thanks for the advice. I find just not using it works fine. Also seems to help with staying on topic in a conversation and not shoving my medical history into everything.
whether you learn something new or not it’s up to you, not the ai
likewise, you can copy and paste from SO and learn nothing
exactly. ppl are like “AI can’t teach you anything” and i’m like “well if you make zero effort to learn, you won’t learn from humans either”

are you aware that there is more than one way to learn something
Sure. Most people learn best using variations on task solving.
“claude, what is ‘using variations on task solving’”
Well? What’s it saying?
