    Exactly. Imagine you’re taking a class. Imagine your note taking process is:

    1. Record an audio copy of the lecture.
    2. Feed the audio into an LLM to transcribe it.
    3. Have the LLM condense the transcription into notes.

    What good have you actually accomplished? The point of studying is not to produce a derivative work of a professor’s lecture. The point is to actually learn something. And this is best done by working through the material, on your own, using your own mind and faculties. It is the act of actually doing the transformation that builds the rich conceptual networks that result in effective learning.

      It’s almost like math teachers requiring work to be shown has a logical reason behind it!
