I was dumb enough to ask this question to LLM, and ofc I got bland answers like "You are probably not dumb, here's ABC to improve oneself"..

So sad that I am too dumb to get a job or make friends. I ended up in grad school trying to get a doctorate, as I was so stupid that looking for a job sounded insurmountable. Now, LLM apocalypse is dawning upon us, which manufactures papers faster than we can even follow. Wonder if any of academia would even be left. Imagine my stupidity of not thinking ahead here.

So anyway, how do I cure my dumbness and actually function as a normal person?

One game-changing fact I learned is: "When you're reading for fun, you don't have to read an entire book from beginning to end."

You can just go to a library, pick up a book and flip through it to see if there's anything interesting, and if not just move on to another book. If you find something interesting you can start reading until it's not interesting any more, then move on to the next book. Whatever you want.
