We are already surrendering parts of our cognition to AI:
- Writing
- Coding
- Research / Search
- Graphic design / media
- Driving / navigation
How much more will we surrender?
What happens to our brains when we stop regularly exercising these abilities ourselves?
Think about driving.
When you're using FSD, how focused are you really?
How much are people still actively observing, navigating, predicting, and making decisions? How much of that mental work have they handed over to the car?
