The first thing #AI will destroy is literacy. If you use AI to write articles, emails, documents, you are going to hell.

The automobile will put horse owners and sable worker out of business.

Nope, that’s not the same thing. Using AI as a tool you are still riding/driving the horse/car, letting AI generate ideas, debates for you, you’d better stay in bed.

If you reviewed and agreed with message being send out by using AI would that be inherently bad?

I could see a future attack ATH where literacy and critical thinking drop as a result of AI tools. Same as students no longer need to know how to do all math, just know how to use a calculator… for school. For the real world you don’t even need that for most things. Many people will never use it beyond a quick phone calculator addition. I say with a bachelors in applied mathematics. Not sure my 3 courses of calculus actually add value to my work or many fields of work today.

WTF was that autocorrect?! 😂

*I could see a future where*

Not attack ATH haha 😂

We don’t need AI, im already illiterate 😂😂😂

It is simple to me. If you know what you want to say but don’t know how to spell a word, don’t know where to find the supporting data, don’t know at what time some events happened which you wanted to quote, using AI is like using a tool. On the contrary, if you don’t know what to say from the beginning and just asked AI to generate ideas then you are not using AI as a tool, you are the one being used. As you said, critical thinking is important, I am not giving this up anytime.

Calculus may not be useful directly in your life, but knowing the methodology of division is surely a powerful part of critical thinking. Not knowing it and not using it are two different things.

Well said, and I think I understand your point a little better.

Thank you 🤝

AOL destroyed my handwriting that’s for damn sure

I am not against using AI as tool though. There is difference.
