They're also responsible for one of the best emails I've ever received, when the college office sent out a plea for sightings of Professor Biscuit while conveniently forgetting to mention that he was a cat...(I won't comment on how often a similar email might have gone out about human Professors...)

There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.
Itβs widely known (and, I think, pretty uncontroversial) that learning requires effort β specifically, if you donβt have to work at getting the knowledge, it wonβt stick.
Even if an LLM could be trusted to give you correct information 100% of the time, it would be an inferior method of learning it.

if you don't know the cause, take a break until you figure it out
if it turns out the cause is burnout or depression, great! you're already taking the first step toward dealing with it
if not, still great! you got a rest which never hurts!

The illustrated cover of WORLD'S OKAYEST ORACLE (RELUCTANTLY) SEEKS DEMON by Olivia Dade, featuring a man and a woman standing back to back against a hot pink background, appearing poised for action. The woman is holding a curved athame, while the man has a fireball just above his open, upturned palm. There are flames and small hearts surrounding them.
Maybe you'd like to see the amazing cover for WORLD'S OKAYEST ORACLE (RELUCTANTLY) SEEKS DEMON, my book about an infamously underpowered oracle saving the world alongside the uptight demon who helped ruin her life 20 years ago?
