    Pretty sure this has been happening for decades. The “problem” (it’s not a problem) is navigation systems, not LLMs.

      I don’t think they were blaming AI for the inability to follow directions without a GPS… They were making an analogy.

        The root of the issue is people are tired of seeing little reward for their effort while those at the top rake in all the benefit with little effort. This teaches people putting in effort amounts to nothing and that thought process then permeates into everything they do. It’s not tools causing the issue its our societies inaction to reduce inequality at large and removing the incentive to be ambitious which eventually creates people with low drive.

        Yup. How many phone numbers do you have memorized? If you’re from the era before cellphones you had to memorize numbers or carry a cheat sheet. You probably had anywhere from 10-30 numbers memorized. Now people don’t even know their spouses numbers.
