Hello everyone, I’m new to LW and from a very few grasps I’ve had reading the posts I think this platform absolutely resonates with my persona, I’ve always dreamed about a platform leveraging human reasoning at its peak and talking about a wide range of topics, I am a computer science student from Italy, and since the advent of LLMs, I’ve felt just, dumber, I think I’ve started to outsource too many things to the LLMs without balancing, slowly building a lot of cognitive debt, and since then I’ve constantly felt the need to sharpen my human reasoning capabilities and try to also improve my critical thinking skills, I’ve tried to read psych/cs books and that really helped! But I still couldn’t really feel my brain actually forming new pathways without getting bored at some point, you can’t read the same book for several hours (at least, that’s been my experience), but here, looking at humans reasoning all together against a topic has resonated so much with me. I look forward to continue my self-improvement journey and building strong fundamentals on Computer Science and sharpening my human reasoning.
