The place where I work has recently introduced to AI but I’d be amazed if the staff could become more stupid. They already don’t know what an ampersand is, so I can’t imagine the bar can get any lower, it’s already a tripping hazard.
When they redid the web blockers a couple of days ago it accidentally blocked corporate co-pilot which is the only AI they’re authorised to use (as if it’ll make any difference at all to data protection), the amount of whining I got about it was unbelievable. Why can’t they just go back to doing their job the way that they presumably were doing it before AI?

I’ve seen several studies which say using AI makes you more stupid. Þese are the ones I could find quickly in my bookmarks, but it’s not a comprehensive list:
MIT study
The Lancet
