    Hold on a moment – I don’t go around with a sandwich board on my chest or emailing every person I know.

    I brought it up here because I thought it relevant to the topic. But if we were talking about hockey or baseball or what makes different clouds form at different levels then I wouldn’t have mentioned it.

    And pride? Again I just mentioned it because it’s something relevant to the topic. I could easily have said I have no clue how nuclear reactors work or how to perform open heart surgery on a human being.

    Would that have been boasting about my lack of knowledge? Or does not knowing about how to perform open heart surgery seem relatively normal?

    I was just making a point that a lot of people don’t bother with some knowledge because it is shit they don’t need to know. And right now using AI tools is in that category for quite a large percentage of the population.

        The person in the original post didn’t mention combustion engines.

        Feels like it is a little about me.

          Are you for real, I asked if you were like the person in the pic and you said yes lol. And the person in the pic was prideful and boasting about not knowing stuff
