Are we offloading too much of our thinking to AI?
- My notes for this essay, written on a plane with no internet and no AI :DI have been observing, in myself and in those around me, a tendency to increasingly offload our thinking to AI.
- From trivial decisions to complex thinking, it is easy, convenient, and in some cases, encouraged, to use AI for researching, reasoning, and answering our every query.
- I recently read “The Perfect Match” by Ken Liu, a 2012 short story which describes this phenomenon with unexpected accuracy.
