Simply the consistent user interface for answers and being able to scan it quickly and efficiently is awesome.

Not having to context switch into another tab. And being able to scroll back to refer to where all these questions started. And not being as trapped in a tangled mess of tabs... Has all been immensely helpful.

AI makes sense for incredibly complicated math and medical technology. Writing is how we learn to construct thoughts and ideas. Art is how we learn to express our humanity. AI for the humanités will create a generation that does know how to think or express thoughts.
