    Academics have completely lost it. The number of mathematicians who write with LLMs and are rationalizing their usage is frightening.

    And they have the audacity to claim that the public will defund them if they don't use new tech. No, the public will defund you if you continue cheating like a 10 year old and you are evidently superfluous.

    Just say no!

    Tools can’t have credit, only People.

    Clearly not written by LLM. (NB: emphasis mine)

    I've been increasingly letting the LLM take the wheel, in my coding. It's working out very, very well.

    I undersign everything under my imprimatur; LLM, contract programmer, intern, whatever. If it has my chop; it has my support and accountability.

    The "A" word (Accountability) has been getting deprecated far longer than LLMs have been around. It seems that no one wants to stand behind their work, anymore; regardless of how that work was done.

    I had the advantage of spending almost 27 years, at a company that really made sure that I was Accountable. I ran a team, but it was my butt on the line.
