  1. @CassandraVert So, some of my autistic co-workers love it. But personally, I've read too much #WilliamGibson, and also articles about how dependence on AI is #DumbingUsDown. We should be exercising our brains to find answers on our own, imho. Use it or lose it! However, on the other hand, it's hard to think fast and clearly when one has "stress brain" -- which happens to me in social situations. I've found myself relying on Google search results (before AI) when I worked in a library -- people want answers, and they want them yesterday! However, we need to balance the cost to our brain power, our environment, energy usage, etc., with whatever benefits that can be provided by AI (as you mentioned).
