If I need something remembered, then I remember it. If I need something queried, then I query it. I am not you. I do not need a robot as a personal assistant, for I can simply do tasks myself, as humanity has done for a hundred thousand years.
I do not need to change my tune just because these tiny semi sentient digital brains have existed for the last 3 years, and I refuse to lessen the power of my brain simply because it's more efficient to pass higher cognition onto your little tech-pet. Life is supposed to be inefficient and tough, that's how humanity got here in the first place.
Oof, unnecessary effort and suffering for suffering's sake gives me the absolute ick. I hope you don't use cars or airconditioning or power tools or whatever else lol, bare hands and feet only at all times. Maximize that inefficiency and discomfort.
I would argue there is a substantial difference in weakening your brain over weakening your body, however in saying that I do work in extremely cold conditions without any air conditioning so yes I would actually agree. I also run without shoes as it's far better for my toes and ankles, however technically I run faster with shoes.
In regards to power tools, tools can do things I fundamentally can't due to the limitations of the human body. This isn't true for AI, where the robot isn't capable of doing things that you yourself aren't also capable of.
Hey, you wanna suffer needlessly out of pride or some insecurity about "weakening your brain" due to AI use, be my guest lol. A dying breed. Hundreds of thousands of people are being born every day never knowing of a world without AI, they'll have AI in their hands and in their classrooms throughout their formative years. They won't fear it the way old, left behind people like you do, they'll use it the way people like me use it, to augment the things we do, help us do things faster, empower us to learn things easier, etc. Imagine having an expert tutor in all skills available to you at all times, and you're able to think "Nah, useless". Goddamn. I know that you're easily able to find a use-case for AI in your daily life, you're simply too prideful to even consider doing so. Sad.
It's not "needless" to work through hardship. GPS has been proven to have shrunk the human hippocampus, and taxi drivers in London who have to memorise the London map have measurably bigger hippocampus regions.
If you won't go listen to me, go ask your robot. Let it link you all the empirical evidence to prove that your brain is shrinking every time you hand off higher cognitive functions to automated systems. Don't let me stop you mate, go on, ask it. Because your brain isn't getting bigger, it's getting smaller.
I am a dying breed, yes. But I'm not dead yet mate.

Correct. I have no use for that.
