Microsoft Study Finds Relying on AI Kills Your Critical Thinking Skills

Oh you are actually trying to say that AI isn't a stain on existence. Weird.
I'm saying it is what it is.

Google used to be good, but this is far superior, I used bings chatgpt when I was in school idk whats good now (it only gave a paragraph max and included sources for each sentence)
How did you manage to actually use bing gpt? I've tried like 20 times and it's wrong the majority of the time

It worked for school stuff well, I always added "prioritize factual sources with .edu " or something like that. Specify that it is for a research paper and tell it to look for stuff how you would.

Also your ability to search information on the web. Most people I've seen got no idea how to use a damn browser or how to search effectively, ai is gonna fuck that ability completely
To be fair, the web has become flooded with AI slop. Search engines have never been more useless. I've started using kagi and I'm trying to be more intentional about it but after a bit of searching it's often easier to just ask claude

Only time I told it to be factual was looking at 4k laptops, it gave me 5 laptops, 4 marked as 4k, 0 of the 5 were actually 4k.
That was last year though so maybe it's improved by now

Counterpoint - if you must rely on AI, you have to constantly exercise your critical thinking skills to parse through all its bullshit, or AI will eventually Darwin your ass when it tells you that bleach and ammonia make a lemon cleanser to die for.

Let me ask chatgpt what I think about this

It’s going to remove all individuality and turn us into a homogeneous jelly-like society. We all think exactly the same since AI “smoothes out” the edges of extreme thinking.

I don’t think those people are still the majority in 20 years…
20 years? Do you know how much damage can be done in 20 years?

Ive also tried using it for old games but at the time it said wailord was the heaviest Pokemon (the blimp whale in fact does not weigh more than the sky scraper).

Copilot told me you're wrong and that I can't play with you anymore.

again not a usecase id use it for, its basically a better search engine that summarizes and skips through the ads and bs on the front page

if you needed to find a source for the heaviest pokemon say that and you have a better chance, otherwise you get random comments its scraped

Honestly, i've had fairly good luck with AI, im not sure how yall havent, its really not that bad, I typically gotta make it bad on purpose for fun.

When all the hw answers sites put up paywalls, id get the steps to do the problem off chatgpt, id try to find it off google first, see the answer with paywall then try chatgpt.

20 years is not soo long..
How old are you that 20 years is not so long?
And also, why does that matter that it's not so long? Have you even bothered noticing all the damage Trump has done in under a month?
His administration just fired a bunch of people responsible for keeping U.S. nuclear weapons secure without knowing what their jobs were.
One month.

I use it to write code for me sometimes, saving me remembering the different syntax and syntactic sugar when I hop between languages. And I use to answer questions about things I wonder - it always provides references. So far it's been quite useful. And for all that people bitch and piss and cry giant crocodile tears while gnashing their teeth - I quite enjoy Apple AI. It's summaries have been amazing and even scarily accurate. No, it doesn't mean Siri's good now, but the rest of it's pretty amazing.
