    I am a mechanical engineer. I was able to get special permission from my IT department to use LLMs as part of my workflow as a genie pig for the department. It is completely useless.

    One the most valuable skill an engineer can have is being able to communicate technical information effectively to different audiences. GPT is on overly polite meat grinder, spitting out half chewed technical slop.

      AI will have a better sense of something like mechanical engineering when it’s inhabited a body for a while.
