Grateful I get to be a new parent in the age of LLMs Instant, always on, functionally unlimited access to humanity's synthesised advice and research on newborns. They've coached me through sleep schedules, lactation issues, health concerns, and generally been a great emotional support system.

Boring caveats: Yes, of course I double check important statistics and facts. Web search is built into most model interfaces and I have nothing else to do at 3am but carefully check the source links. I can't wait for the day where I don't have to post this boring caveat on anything re: LLMs.

There is a shocking amount to learn once you bring a baby home, and most of it is not going to come to you through intuition. There's only so much community / NHS support available, and ChatGPT fills in a thousand tiny gaps in my knowledge and lets me ramble at it for hours to troubleshoot issues.

Deep Research is good for finding local activities and events to go to, if you haven’t tried that yet :)
