Younger generations will take AI for granted, they will just take shortcuts to get things done and won't miss all the steps and falls
we used to take in order to learn. How will they learn?

The same way other generations learned to deal with the radio, tv, and the internet.

@CurrentName It is really not the same thing. Agentic AI, the latest type of AI which I expect to dominate very soon like all other types just literally do it all.

@BittersweetPotato That might very well be true, but that's not the question. 😊

@CurrentName how is this not the question?

This is definitely the biggest risk of AI. Deterioration of human mind. If critical thinking skills and research are not taught as subjects that stand on their own in school and on what is the correct way to use AI.. I genuinely feel this is the end of humanity and we will just reproduce generations that are less intellectual and also more physically unhealthy but this is another problem..
Because i was not “born in it” I use AI to teach me as opposed to giving me the answers. It has been great and really a lot of help and knowledge I gained.. so if anything, it is actually making me more intellectual. I tailor it to have me consume knowledge the best way I know my brain works, through narrating stories etc .. but this is because I already learned how to think for myself.. the real risk if someone never learned that skill, AI will fully control their brain and not the other way round.

@EarthlingWise yes, I understand that but if I chat with AI about something, it’s like chatting with a professional in the field. And AI is only gonna get better. But you have to choose how you use it. Yeah, I don’t know what the future is gonna hold or how people will use it. I couldn’t have imagined that when the Internet basically was first coming out like with windows, 95 and what it would be coming now. There is good and bad about the Internet, and the same will be for AI.

Choosing to break free from something isn't always easy, especially when all your peers are using it. I'm sure it's possible to be a very occasional smoker or even a very occasional heroin user but it's difficult and it will be even more difficult with AI because AI will touch everything.
if they choose to.
And heroin addicts can get clean if they choose to. Smokers can give up too when the choose to. My mother did it twice every decade.Choosing to break free from something isn't always easy, especially when all your peers are using it.

@ninalanyon yes, people have free will. People can choose anything.

Because he question is not about the powers or dangers of AI. It is about how will future generation will learn how to do the things that would be "short cut" by using AI.

I think it’s a fad.
