A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

LLM's are just as revolutionary as Automated Assembly Lines were. (lemm.ee)

Way late edit here, I agree with the disapproval of my statement. I was thinking about how LLM's kind of work the same way. Designed by humans to make something humans can already do but thousands of times faster. However "revolutionary" was very much the wrong word choice.

Here's the big difference. Automated assembly lines do a job better than the average human can. LLMs do the job consistently worse than the average human would.
