  • That sounds like Socrates’ argument that writing would weaken people’s memories.

    Saying it leads to cognitive decline is saying you can’t use an LLM and have critical thinking, which I can’t agree with.

    That’s not me saying it. MIT, Harvard, and others have released numerous studies that show using LLMs does exactly that, reduce critical thinking. You can disagree all you want but until you do the science you’re disagreeing with a growing body of actual experts.







  • I’ll preface by saying I’m heavily against anything LLM generated and in a perfect world we’d have a full clean divide, just so my comment can be viewed in context.

    I can’t speak to them all but I would not count Jellyfin as coded by AI based on their standards. Yes, people have likely used LLM “tools” to write code they submit, but they expect a human to understand the code/request, understand it’s purpose, what the code is doing, and explain the PR. A human is expected to fully own the work.

    There’s no way to enforce that as much as I wish, but I think it’s a fair distinction between what would get an [AI] tag and and [Not AI] tag. Is a human expected to fully own and understand it, or is LLM code just accepted as is without full oversight and understanding.



  • Pro: I can update when I want. Updates don’t have me guessing every single time if they’re going to completely override my configurations. The updates themselves aren’t bug riddled AI garbage installing yet another electron app. My Linux mint uses about half the RAM a Windows 11 install used on the exact same PC and doesn’t constantly thrash my SSD or spike my CPU. Every issue I’ve run into has just been a lack of knowledge on my part, and easily fixed by guides online. Last time I had to help someone with an issue on their Windows 11 it took more time sifting through guides trying to find where the hell they’d moved settings and failed to document something than I ever want to spend again.

    Cons: I genuinely have not found one yet personally. I’m not saying Linux is perfect, just I’ve had zero real issues myself.
