    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.
