Most people have heard the adage, \u201cIf you don\u2019t use it, you lose it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What happens when people start outsourcing their brain\u2019s ability to synthesize information and think critically (or even just think period) with a middle man that doesn\u2019t even think at all? What happens when entire generations of young people don\u2019t hone any of those skills on their own before just handing over their brains to AI\u2026 before they even learn to learn, let alone how to think?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Human thought is being disincentivized while people are pushed deeper and deeper into personal relationships with technology they\u2019re being trained not to question while they aren\u2019t even really being told how it works. Meanwhile, \u201coffloading cognitive tasks\u201d is just a fancy way of saying \u201cletting something else think for you\u201d. It\u2019s putting an AI middle man directly into people\u2019s heads.<\/p>
