It's not apples to oranges, hon. It's apples to apples. Both things are talking about outsourcing a portion of the job human mind usually does to an external technology. Whether that portion is memory and external technology being writing (i.e. not having to remember/memorize as many things because you wrote them down and can refer to them later), or the portion is reasoning and invention and external technology is AI (i.e. not having to come up with a new idea or solve the problem because you can have AI do it for you. Both things prophesize doom and gloom on how the part if human brain that normally does that job is going to go downhill as a result. Except in the case of writing we already know that the doom and gloom didn't come to pass. So there is no reason to suspect the AI related doom and gloom would either.
