Wow! That is scary.. and very possible too. I already see it happening in my own behaviours.
(It would also make a great movie!)
But how do we protect ourselves from the silent creep? Especially for our kids who are growing up in a first generation ai world and have never seen any other way?
- more community with real people.
- have hard conversations
- use manual tools
- walk in nature
- practice logic problems and decision making
- write on paper
What else?

“Why "Follow Your Passion" Fails:
Whoever hands you that advice is assuming two things, and both are usually wrong. First, that you already know what your passion is. Most people don't. Second, that you only have one. We all have several obsessions and most of us haven't identified a single one to go for.
The word passion comes from the Latin for suffering. What people should be telling you is to find the thing you're willing to suffer for.”
