How AI Can Make Us Lazier
1. Reduced Mental Effort
When answers are always instant, the brain works less.
Psychology shows that thinking muscles weaken when not used.
2. Dependency on External Thinking
Relying on AI for decisions reduces independent thought.
Over time, people may stop questioning, analyzing, or reflecting deeply.
3. Shortened Attention Spans
AI encourages quick solutions.
This can reduce patience for slow thinking, deep reading, and sustained focus.
