Of course, that's precisely the point.

Yep.

The wealthy are pushing it because a lot of the dumbest will readily off load any critical thinking they can

Which makes them worse at critical thinking, and more unlikely to want to unload it. And it just keeps going like that. Making dumb people dumber all the time

100% intentional, but the AI users simply can’t understand what’s happening.

It’s not restricted to dumb people though. Most of my non-technical friends embrace it on way or another and they are not stupid in their own fields. It’s scary.

And muscle activity is lower when using a car.

How much ever do you put into changing gear. It really shouldn’t be that difficult are you definitely pressing the clutch down?

Think of all the Americans, they weep when they see a stick shift

"... for task that can be completed sucesfully with copy-pasting output with little to no changes": the same not peer-reviewed MIT study published hasetly "to protect the children".

We are better than this.

So, if a computer is bicycle for the mind, llm can be viewed as combustion engine and the chatbot interface as a car. Hallucinations are accidents that can kill you (i.e. if you follow regurgitated reddit troll as health advice) and your mind’s muscles are wasting away.

Actually AI is more a marketing scam than anything else.

echodot@feddit.uk on 20 Jun 17:20 collapse

Ai is both a scam and going to take everyone’s jobs, depending on who you talk to.

Brain neutral thinking.
