I think we'd be better off if everyone viewed AI like you'd view a four year old. If a four year old tells you a fact about space, it is probably true; kids love learning about space. If they insist they discovered a NEW fact about space, well maybe we don't take that at face value. Also never ask health advice; we've seen what four year olds lick.

One weird work habit I've developed is always scheduling emails to send in 5 min to an hour in the future (depending on urgency). About 50% of the time I edit them at least once before they send.

Everyone in the Trump admin: despite not having any qualifications, I’m an expert and in charge. Me: Can I call myself a Nuclear Physicist even though my PhD is in Nuclear Engineering, given that one of my two focus areas was Nuclear Physics? But also, I suppose, to be specific I mostly do cyclotron and beam physics. Yeah probably not I’ll just say I’m a goober or something
