Internet felt like this at first: pay for dial up, maybe you have to buy a computer, buy a modem. But then email got useful and then search.
You don't think llms have saved you some time?
I think they've cost me additional time. When I used to just give up on a search pretty quickly, now I spend a little bit chatting with the LLM to refine my questions, and then spend even more time actually reading the sources it found.

Nope, that is much more expensive than anything else you can do!! Time is the value of your life. Stealing goods is stealing past time. Murder is stealing future time. And, waste is stealing present time.

A bit but even with the internet life isn’t getting cheaper. Things that matter have skyrocketed in price. Homes cars healthcare education all way more expensive. Yet what’s cheaper? Consumer goods but even then they aren’t that much cheaper.
I’m just waiting for high quality food to actually get cheaper. Will the internet and AI make a bag of organic apples ever cost $1 in today’s dollars?
