Yeah, but thinking with an LLM is different. The article says: > By “thinking hard,” I mean encountering a specific, difficult problem and spending multiple days just sitting with it to overcome it. The "thinking hard" I do with an LLM is more like management thinking. Its chaotic and full of conversations and context switches. Its tiring, sure. But I'm not spending multiple days contemplating a single idea. The "thinking hard" I do over multiple days with a single problem is more like that of a scientist / mathematician. I find myself still thinking about my problem while I'm lying in bed that night. I'm contemplating it in the shower. I have little breakthroughs and setbacks, until I eventually crack it or give up. Its different. | ||

YMMV, but I've found that I actually do way more of that type of "thinking hard" thanks to LLMs. With the menial parts largely off my plate, my attention has been freed up to focus on a higher density of hard problems, which I find a lot more enjoyable. | ||

There are a lot of hard problems to solve in orchestration. We've barely scratched the surface on this. | ||
