Serious question: If you willingly use generative "AI", do you believe you're immune to or sufficiently protected from de-skilling, cognitive decline, and what's commonly known as "AI psychosis"?

If yes: What makes you believe that? How are you special?

If no: Why do you still use it, given that you're aware of the risks to your cognition? Do you just accept it?

@aesthr It's no different than tasking an intern or junior.

@binder that says a lot about what you think of interns and juniors, and not in a good way

@aesthr That they need a senior engineer to break apart and give them work then provide feedback for improvement?

This is literally how things have worked for hundreds of years.
