What do you mean "grit"? Does doing something more efficiently mean you lose it? What's the difference, say, between someone using an LLM to help them code and someone else using a drug to help them diet? Is the coder using an LLM losing their "grit"? Do you walk to work in 30 inches of snow, uphill both ways, in the rain? Are you concerned about your loss of "grit" by not doing so? This argument continues to baffle me.
I didn't take the GLP to help me with addictive behavior traits beyond my diet, but I observed tertiary benefits of the drug.
As I've titrated my dose down to zero, I've retained those habits and my weight. I'm in the best shape of my life and mentally healthier than I've been in over a decade.
I think the comparison to LLM use is a bad idea, because LLM use has pretty clear adverse effects on your capacity to program unassisted, and almost certainly long term limits your potential growth as a programmer, in ways that the LLM can't compensate (at least, not with current tech). Basically using LLMs extensively as a junior may well make you a better junior, but guarantee you'll never be a senior.
My understanding is that that GLP1 drugs don't actually have this effect, as much as we know so far.
