 ROBOT CHEFS TAKE OVER AT SOUTH KOREA'S HIGHWAY RESTAURANTS, TO MIXED
REVIEWS (12 MINUTE READ) [12] 

 South Korean tech companies are now deploying collaborative robots to
work alongside humans in hotels, elder care, schools, and restaurants.
The bots are supposed to solve a looming labor shortage in the rapidly
aging nation. The government plans to increase the number of bot
workers to 1 million by 2030. The reaction to the introduction of
robots has been met with mixed emotions from both workers and
customers. 

 LLMS ARE MAKING ME DUMBER (11 MINUTE READ) [17] 

 Large language models can help people output substantially more work,
but this usually comes at the cost of learning or improvement. People
are incentivized to maximize immediate output, so the sacrifice seems
fair. Before the rise of generative AI, learning was a prerequisite
for output, but people can now use technology to build things without
deeply understanding the implementation. Developers should decide what
skills they are and are not okay with offloading and what they want to
do for themselves.
