Were they even thinking in the first place though? There is so much you can do with AI already to help you become better at thinking, or writing, or whatever… you can ask it to challenge your views, or give objective feedback for work you’ve done. But the point should still be *you’ve done*

Right, it's a tool like anything else but that's why AI is a bad way to describe it imo. It isn't intelligent, it has limits like any other tools but because we call it a intelligence a lot of dumb people believe it is one & are accepting what AI says as fact.

That is very scary. Technology can be manipulated so easily. AI can be a guide or a mirror… but if people outsource their thinking to it… what happens if one day someone does to AI what Musk did to Twitter, but just on a much grander scale?

People are even getting too lazy to reply to Twitter messages now. I see people just “@Grok” and get the bot to write back. Attention spans were already bad, but now people can’t even be bothered to write a paragraph (although it can be funny when Grok doesn’t say what they wanted it to say, lol).

Those same people also refuse to read anything written by a human if it contains em dashes. Such irony.

As a regular user of the em-dash, I was very confused to see people using this as an identifier of AI writing.

Exactly. And I feel like I have subconsciously tried to limit my use of them precisely because of that…
