A while back during a particularly rough patch where everything was going wrong, I started thinking, "man, I really hope I'm being stupid and doing it wrong..." (because then I can stop doing that!)
And wouldn't you know it, I keep getting my wish :)

Isn't that a metacognitive insight itself?

#9If you asked me last year(2025) I would have still said LLMs are a silly toy.
As of Jan 2026 I have come to accept that LLMs are at least part of the puzzle of how intelligence works. They are at this point better than the majority of humans at various intellectual tasks. It may not be or ever be a 1:1 but good enough ran the world already before llms.
There is not even a formal definition of what intelligence is so saying LLM's are intelligent can't even be "right/wrong". Its just arguing semantics and definitions.
