They said the same thing about my generation and calculations and how you won't always have one in your pocket.

@lomaine i heard that in school too. "You have to learn long division, you wont have a calculator in the future!"
We also had to learn hand writing which is now not even used anywhere.

I'm hoping it's banned in a few years. Though that's definitely not going to happen under MAGA.

We've had a few power cuts in the past few hours and the local supermarket was scuppered for a while. I am already over-reliant on electricity to live as I want to, so adding AI seems just another step in that direction.
They won't. Frequent AI usage has already been linked to a decline in cognitive function, and once people are unable to function without it, it will stop being free and become another milk cow for corporate greed at the expense of the working class.

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

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

@CurrentName how is this not the question?

@BittersweetPotato The question is... How are the new generations are going to learn to do the things getting "short cut" by using AI
Not about the powers or dangers of AI

They won't.... Same as they never learnt multiplication tables

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.

They can still learn if they choose to. We will just get a lot of help from AI. Just like we do the Internet. The Internet helps me learn all kinds of stuff.

@Jonjdw
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.

@Jonjdw Yeah, right.

I think it’s a fad.

Don’t believe a word of it.

If they use it uncritically, they will learn through failure just as before . . .
