The study referenced shows a sudden and dramatic drop in brain activity of people using AI to write an essay when compared to people writing an essay themselves. Writing teaches us to organize our thinking. Failing to learn to organize our thinking makes us dumb. When questioned about the contents of the essay those who used chat gpt to assist were not able to answer any questions about the paper. As though it had never happened. Imagine waking up one day and realizing this your senior year of college was over and you literally could not remember a single thing you learned that year, as though it never happened. That’s the idiocratic shift we’re seeing. AI is literally causing us to turn off our brains. A whole generation will learn nothing in school. Ask an educator how it’s going. I’ve heard from half a dozen. The consensus is “it’s a shit show”
