  • Great essay, I appreciate your reply.

    I would like to see a more thorough investigation or refutation regarding the potential AI has on cognitive atrophy. I don’t believe we can at all say that this potential was proven false since the advent of the internet- in fact I would say that the internet is a great example.

    The issue I take is not with outsourcing in general, and of course no serious person could claim that one can live in a “vacuum outside of society”. But it is clear that people are using AI or attempting to use AI as a means to outsource mental tasks, and decision making that is endemic to the human experience / cognitive growth.

    Can we compare a calculator to the purported uses- or even confirmed use cases of AI? I don’t believe so. The calculator is but a grenade when compared to AI’s nuclear potential.

    Surface level investigations will reveal that irrespective of AI being the same as human relationships- humans will treat them that way. This sort of thing was demonstrated as early as the mid 20th century with the first chat-like computers.

    Need we recirculate well circulated articles on the subject? Need we speak to the innumerable lonely people discussing their AI friend / partner replacement on reddit forums? Need we discuss this any further? Is there even a point in fighting against something that even the left adjacent uncritically support?

    If you are at all content with the internet, or any of our other modern facets of entertainment- I don’t believe we will ever agree.








  • Always the least funny guy showing you a standup comedy clip on YT- maybe it’s something that you have to see in person because I’ve never seen a special that made me forget the time I lost watching the next big sex pest fail to leave a positive impression on anyone in the crowd who won’t follow them through their “career” until they capitulate to the right to regain a shred of notoriety
