If you are in the US and making payments into social security, this seems like excellent advice. It's not actually that hard to log in at https://ssa.gov and download your current statement. I downloaded and backed up both the PDF and XML versions of my current social security statement, to aid with recovery after Musk DOGEs it.
Why? I've used LLMs as coding assistants. It's like working with a very bright kid fresh out of college who had lots of native capacity but only paid attention in class when he was interested, doesn't pay attention very well to what you ask, incorrectly thinks and expresses that he is paying attention, and has basically zero judgement regarding what would be a good idea. Doesn't mean you need to fire him, but he needs constant supervision and close review of everything he does, and it's not necessarily a net time savings. (I use male pronouns here advisedly.
) This is what a "stochastic parrot" looks like: a sometimes over-enthusiastic pattern matching autocomplete system.
