They reason better than 90% of people I know. They help me with problems I’m stuck on. Good enough for me.

I predict 2026 is going to be the year of disillusionment with LLMs, when we realize that this technology has reached its theoretical limit and won't keep improving and I wanted to be early to the party so wrote an article where I analyze the current stage of affairs
