Researchers have conducted another study about AI and its effects on the human brain. The results were grim.

“We find that AI assistance improves immediate performance, but it comes at a heavy cognitive cost,” the study declares. Researchers went on to state that just ten minutes of using AI made people dependent on the technology, which led to worsening performance and burnout once the tools were removed.

The study followed people who use AI for “reasoning-intensive” cognitive labor. This refers to stuff like writing, coding and brainstorming new ideas, which are some of the most common use cases.

    Why I do make it a point trying to go out and interact to people, or at least just sit out at the park and watch the world go by. Also why I liked slightly crowded but lively neighborhoods over awfully quiet suburbia.
