A.I. ar putea „sedentariza” mintea

Professor Devi Sridhar emphasizes the need to exercise our brains, warning that increased AI usage may lead to mental stagnation. By outsourcing cognitive tasks like thinking and writing to AI, we risk atrophying our mental abilities. This parallels the decline in physical activity as countries become wealthier, resulting in chronic health issues. Recent PISA test results show concerning declines in math, reading, and science skills, supporting her claims. A study indicates that students using AI for essay writing exhibit weaker brain connectivity compared to those who write independently. Sridhar argues that, similar to physical health, we must actively engage our minds, cautioning that the optimistic hype around AI benefits tech companies more than individual well-being.
