Considering that reliance on AI weakens people's critical thinking skills, I'm curious what your reasoning is here.
Perhaps we're thinking of different things. I'm not talking about using it to do your homework or to read books for you.
Practical example: I've been thinking about making my own programming language for 20 years. This year, I was able to. Did my thinking skills diminish this year when I did something I couldn't have been arsed to do over that long time?
