Lex Fridman Podcast · #490 – State of AI in 2026: LLMs, Coding, Scaling Laws, China, Agents, GPUs, AGI · 1 Feb 2026 podcast

But then at the same time, when I solve a complex problem,

well if there's a bug and i hunt this bug and i find the bug it's the best feeling in the world it's like you get so much joy like oh it's like you feel like great but now if you don't even think about thinking about the bug you just go directly to the lm well you never have this kind of feeling right but then there could be the middle ground where well you try yourself you can't find it you use the llm and then you don't get frustrated because it helps you and you move on to something that you enjoy and so

I think looking at these statistics, I think also the difference is what is not factored in.

It's averaging over all the different scenarios where we don't know if it's for the core task or if it's for something mundane that people would not have enjoyed otherwise.

So in a sense, AI is really great for doing mundane things that take a lot of work.

So for example, my wife the other day, she has a podcast for book discussions, a book club.

And she was like transferring the show notes from Spotify to YouTube.

And then the links somehow broke.

And she had in some episodes, because it is customary books, like 100 links or something.

And it would have been really painful to go in there and fix each link manually.

And so I suggested, hey, let's try ChatGPT.

We copied the text into ChatGPT and it fixed them.

And instead of two hours going from link to link, fixing that, you know,

It made that type of work much more seamless.

There was no frustration fixed.

I think everyone has a use case where AI is useful for something like that, that would be really boring, really mundane.

It's maybe also related to delayed gratification.

I'm a person who, you know, even as a kid, I liked the idea of Christmas presents, having them, getting them better than actually getting the presents.

I would...

look forward to the day i get the presence but then it's over and i'm disappointed and maybe it's something like also with let's say food i think food tastes better when you're really hungry and with yeah you're right with debugging it is not always you know great it's like often frustrating but um then if you can solve it then it's great but there's also like a sweet goldilocks zone if it's too hard and it's you know wasting your time
