    It’s called cognitive atrophy

    Your mind works like a muscle; if you don’t use it, you begin to lose it.

    This isn’t a new concept either. For example, alzheimers patients are given puzzle based tasks to aid in stalling degradation of mental faculties.

      Lol the said the same thing for every advance in technology.

      They said the same for books in fact.

      So can you show me with evidence this is occurring. If not, I would say you have a similar pattern to how the right get all bothered by immigrants. That this belief stems from a series of online media that targeted certain groups for maximum effect

        Wow that is some heavy whataboutism bud. I’ve already given you everything you asked for in the previous post.

        You say we’re the ones on the wrong side of history; not too disimilar to those who championed cigarettes or heroin as miracle cures despite the medical concerns raised at the time of their inception.

        The major flaw with your argument is that LLMs are run by major corporations (aka the ruling class), the same class that run the majority of media outlets, and are therefore generally looked upon favourably. Immigrants are not.
