Only if you're less intelligent than the average. The problem with LLMs is that they will always fall to the average/mean/median of information.

And if the average person is orders of magnitude better than you at thinking, you're right... you should let the AI do it lol

Do you think that the average person can get a gold on the IMO?

Your comment is nonsensical. Have you ever used any LLM?

Ask the LLM to... I don't know, to explain to you the chemistry of aluminium oxides.

Do you really think the average human will even get remotely close to the knowledge an LLM will return to such a simple question?

Ask an LLM to amend a commit. Ask it to initialize a rails project. Have it look at a piece of C code and figure out if there are any off-by-one errors.

Then try the same to a few random people on the street.

If you think the knowledge stored in the LLM weights for any of these questions is that of the average person I don't even know what to say. You must live in some secluded community of savant polymaths.
