Do LLMs make me dumber?

In the article 'LLMs Are Making Me Dumber,' Vincent discusses the impact of language models on our thinking and information processing skills. The author begins with reflections on the positive effects of artificial intelligence on efficiency in daily life but quickly shifts this optimism into a more dystopian vision. He emphasizes that the use of LLMs (large language models) contributes to a decline in critical thinking skills. Instead of analyzing and interpreting information ourselves, we rely on models to do it for us. Unfortunately, this phenomenon is becoming increasingly common, potentially leading to a decrease in individuals' intellectual capabilities. Ultimately, the author calls for conscious use of technology to avoid losing essential skills such as independent thought and critical analysis, which are crucial in today's complex world.
