Antifragile

"It does not mean that libraries (physical and virtual) are not acceptable; it mean that they should not be the source of any idea. Students pay to write essays on topics for which they have to derive knowledge from a library as a self-enhancement exercise; a professional who is compensated to write and is taken seriously by others should use a more potent filter. Only distilled ideas, ones that sit in us for a long time, are acceptable - and those that come from reality." - Nassim Nicholas Taleb Antifragile

As I read this it occurred to me that it equally could be applied to AI which, if you think about it, represent an LLM of all the books ever written. However, if you don't understand how a subject truly works just gives you at best a surface knowledge which in Taleb's words would probably make you fragile.
