This study is really interesting to me cause I don’t think AI inherently makes us dumb, but of course it will if we’re blindly deferring to it without trying to understand what it produces
In a similar vein, I can navigate places I lived before GPS without a phone no problem but I’m immediately lost without my phone in Denver even though I’ve lived here for 5 years. My fault for deferring, but I don’t really value memorizing the layout of cities (if you do, that’s dope and I respect it)
With software (or anything I find interesting, really), I need to know why stuff works. So once I get an answer for something new, I start using it as a research assistant to understand the why
So yeah, imo the results aren’t surprising but I love that we’re studying this stuff. The brain is a muscle, and all that. I think it’s important to point this out
My gut tells me that, at least until AGI eats us all, the value of AI scales exponentially with the knowledge of the user. I.e. an amateur in a field with AI can be productive, but a pro with AI can dominate
Kinda reminds me of the advice to not just copy/paste code from stack overflow. The problem isn’t new, just a different flavor
