Re: AI is a tool and using it well takes skill

Its probable that AI will roll out much faster than humans can develop that skill of using it in a way that increases not decreases human knowledge over time.

The current slew of excellent LLMs will probably cause a decades long dip in human cognitive ability.

If social media on smartphones had an impact of ability of students to concentrate, LLM AI will likely have a much greater negative impact on education.

There are trillions of dollars of investment pushing for humans to trust whatever an LLM says, and very little money behind encouraging people to tackle hard problems themselves and train themselves to think.

I have to say honestly, that AI looks like an apocalypse for human thinking [ Im glad Tao is warning people, I just dont think many people will listen ]
