  1. Dismiss Notice
  1. Think about it, the Car and technology has made us unfit etc. Atrophy will erode our intelligence too when we don't use it.

  3. The entire world has turned dumb ever since Coronavirus 2020. And BLM, DEI, open borders, liberal soft policies, retail theft, intolerances, misinformation, insurrection, greed, egos, masturbation stimulus, zoom, tik tok, social, corruption, impatience, etc misc

  4. Might be an idea to store some Sperm now while you're still relatively smart, so your "smart genes" are passed on, not the dumb ones.

    In the age of rapid AI progress, it is very important to maintain the ability to use one's own intellect.

    I think, and hope, AI will actually surprise us and make us less gullible in the long term.

    New generations will be aware that they will have to question every info coming from a screen or device, or any writing like essays, songs etc...

    My generation: If they said that on TV, it must be true!
     
  8. I am now able to find information that I wasn't able to find before. Specially on topics that require extensive knowledge in the field.

    I don't Google anything anymore.

    There's a new type of individual who keeps posting text copied from AI prompts. Maybe those are getting dumber. Or they were dumb before and they are just being highlighted now. Who knows.

    But for the rest that want to learn is an amazing tool to have, it gives your curiosity super powers.

    - Source code. Claude Sonnet or Grok
    - Trading. Deep Seek
    - History, politics or news. ChatGPT
    - Recipes or something mundane. Gemini
