Dump trucks are a tool. If we lose dump trucks, then we no longer have the ability & skills required to move large loads of gravel. Therefore, according to the general principle cited ( "If loss of a tool = loss of your skill & knowledge, then that tool isn't an asset, it's a liability") it follows that dump trucks are a liability.
But, of course, dump trucks are not a liability. They make it possible to do what we could not do before. Same with LLMs.

@Downes @Wifiwits Good Lord, are you *trying* to be this dense, or does it come naturally?

@Downes @jwcph that analogy doesn’t work at all. These things are not comparable and I’m sure you know this so I can only assume you’re not contributing in good faith here.
