I have been watching the dialogue on this one closely. To everyone who is saying "OP is special, no one could use AI this way" well, I have spent 18 months doing significant amounts of scicomm in patient communities and they are ALL using AI this way. wrote this to help: github.com/DrCatHicks/informed-patient

Cory Doctorow: The people who tell you ‘AI is changing everything’ are lying

The AI Industry Has a Major Problem: Most People Aren’t Freaks Who Want an AI Agent Running Their Whole Life
There's a problem for AI agents like Meta's Muse: ordinary people don't seem very interested in what they're offering.

Why personal AI tools might not be all we need to revolutionize science

* I’m neither “pro-AI” nor “anti-AI.” I’ve been blocked for being perceived as both. —Actually, I’m honestly more anti-AI than pro-AI thus far, aside from specialized models and specific use cases, but I’m willing to consider information that’s new to me
