Do you not know any people who can help? Suddenly realised how lonely this sounds.

Coordinating with people is hard and only gets harder as you live. And actually, finding someone that is earnestly receptive to hearing you pitch your half-baked startup ideas (just an example) and is in some capacity qualified to be at all helpful, is uhhh, not easy.

Really? Sometimes I think I'm not very social, then I read something like this. Don't you have any friends? Colleagues? Maybe that's the problem you need to solve rather than sitting in a room burning energy for endless token streams with LLMs that anyone has access to?

Ah, I couldn't help myself practice my creative writing in the other reply. This reply is more constructive:

Both LLM based rubber-ducking and human discussions seem like a win win. I see no reason to jump to labeling unhealthy social connections just for pairing with LLMs.

lol. nobody is proposing this "well if not friends, then...". Appreciate your concern. I am fine.

This is for Internet posterity: thought-partnering with AI does not in fact make you a sorry socially inept loser that needs globular-toast to come in and help you dial that helpline.

Also: one's friends do not, in reality want to thought-partner about work issues, esoteric hobbies, and that million dollar idea.

Also: these friends, every and any one of them it seems, will not in fact speak the word of God into your ear as manifest insight for said work issue, million dollar idea, and so forth.
