And no im just just wasting bandwidth. There is correlations to suggest it has a negative impact on the ability to think.
That's arguable. I still can make complicated arithmetics on a piece of paper but I'd rather use a calculator or an excel sheet and derive the spare energy to reach further.
I learned to fly following a vor beacon but I'd rather use the gps navigator and dedicate the spare time to better attend coms.
I keep my brain busy, it is just focused on higher level tasks that improve the overall experience.
AI is a tool, a very powerful one.
How to make use of it depends solely on you.
Again that's the bias, you have the previous knowledge. It can rust, but its doesn't as much to maintain it.
The same can't be said for someone who is still learning or doesn't have that knowledge ingrained yet.
Ok, we can partially agree on that. Taking shortcuts is not a good way to learn anything. That's the only downside if it.
But just consider that most of those people who are now able to code, or do anything else, relying on AI, would have not even dare to approach those matters without it. They just get a job done that previously they could not. They were not interested in learning about that before, so they are not missing thinking abilities, and conversely they are acquiring new skills.
