You know what i don't ever see? People arguing AI helped them become a better athlete...

turns out there are no shortcuts for that, unless they are drugs... which is generally considered cheating and comes with horrible and dangerous side-effects...

Not all PEDs come with horrible side effects. Caffeine can increase performance in some sports for the mild side effect of later fatigue and some excitability. However add money and fame to it and people will push it till there are some!

AI is PEDs for the brain except they don't actually enhance performance or make you feel good
