LLM's are information processors. Linters on steroids.

Don't talk to them? Maybe that's the issue..treating them like people instead of the text processors that they are.

I use LLM's consistently every day and haven't had a "chat" with one in many months. Issue commands and request documents. The whole "thinking machine" role-play makes the tool dumber, not smarter, and corrupts your own patterns of thinking into ones that are dependent rather than imperative.

Conversation is literally the least interesting and most error prone use case that LLM's can provide.
