Microsoft Study Finds Relying on AI Kills Your Critical Thinking Skills
-
No, he said Breath as a service, which is funny!
-
i use my thinking skills to tell the LLM to quit fucking up and try again or I'm gonna fire his ass
-
that "ow, my balls" reference caught me off-guard
-
That sounds right. Lemme ask Gemini and DeepSink just in case.
-
Gemini told me critical thinking wasn't important. So I guess that's ok.
-
No shit.
-
I love how you mix in the Idiocracy quotes
-
Keep it on its toes... Ask chatgpt, then copy paste the answer and ask perplexity why that's wrong and go back and forth...human, AI, Human, AI...until you get a satisfactory answer.

That's the same company that approved Clippie and the magic wizard.
-
I‘m surprised they even published this finding given how hard they‘re pushing AI.
-
Oddly enough that's exactly what corporate wants. Mindless drones to do their bidding unquestioned
-
I hate how it just seems to slide in.
-
That's because they're bragging, not warning.
-
Of course. Relying on a lighter kills your ability to start a fire without one. Its nothing new.
-
Remember the:
Personal computers were “bicycles for the mind.”
I guess with AI and social media it's more like melting your mind or something. I can't find another analogy. Like a baseball bat to your leg for the mind doesn't roll off the tongue.
I know Primeagen has turned off copilot because he said the "copilot pause" daunting and affects how he codes.

i like to say "are you sure you even understand this? do you know what you’re doing or do i need to spell it out for you?!"
-
Bullet point 3 was my single issue vote
-
A savvy consumer, glad you mentioned. Felt better than hitting it on the nose.
-
Calculators also don’t think critically.
-
Damn. I wonder where all the calculus identities and mathematical puzzle solving abilities in my head disappeared to then. Surely not into the void that is Wolfram Mathematica. Surely not...
