I think this a fascinating, yet unsurprising finding. We’ve known for a long time that automation leads to skillset atrophy on the part of the user. Perhaps most famously, in aviation where some automated systems make complicated procedures so easy that pilots effectively lose the skills to do the proper procedure themselves. The discussions I hope are happening is the prospect of intentional capability limits of AI in critical industries/areas where humans must absolutely and always intervene. It seems analogous to having a superpower without knowing how to control it, creating a potentially deadly situation at best. Then perhaps more long term at the generational scale, will humans cognitively devolve to a point where AI is making all of our decisions for us? Essentially we make ourselves obsolete and eventually we’re reclassified as “regular/inferior” species of animals. Profit and return on investments here cannot get in the way of handling these details with great oversight and responsibly.
