Copied and pasted from an article on Dazed about AI and the new ‘slurs’ people are inventing to describe those who overuse it: ‘Of course, there has also been some backlash. This is partly because of the resource-heavy nature of AI tools, their dependence on widespread copyright violations, and the suspect motives of their creators. But there’s also a growing fear about what the technology is doing to the brains of the people that use it. According to a recent study from MIT, offloading cognitive work onto AI tools comes at a significant cost, including reduced neural connectivity and memory recall. Another paper, by researchers from Microsoft and Carnegie Mellon University, suggests that reliance on AI leaves humans “atrophied and unprepared” for cognitive tasks in the real world.’
