The authors write that in addition to Kahneman’s fast and slow “systems” of cognition, this new artificial crutch is creating what they call “System 3.”

The authors write:

Our findings demonstrate that people readily incorporate AI-generated outputs into their decision-making processes, often with minimal friction or skepticism.

If your brain is too gelatinous from offloading your thinking to a chatbot, and now you can’t read about the findings in any detail, here’s a video of the authors talking about them:

It is easier to tailor AI to fit your biases than a standard search engine query. There are lots of people for whom thinking is hard work, and is to be avoided in its entirety. In this light, it is easy to see how AI can be more detrimental to thought than a simple search query.

And I think AI actually gives you ANSWERS, right or wrong... if you google stuff you rarely find "the answer" you have to do some reading and some thinking unless you're just searching for basic factual information. The AI actually finds an answer for you, it's definitely a more passive experience.

Cooking at Home Once a Week Slashes Dementia Risk​

Heres the thing. What kind of ridiculous clown world lifestyle involves a person not cooking at least 1 meal per week at home? If you don't cook at least one meal a week at home, do you even live there? Are you even alive?

Theres your story. That ridiculous lifestyle, whatever it involves, causes dementia. Its not the cooking spaghetti once a week prevents it, for fucks sake.

But no,
Tani suggests that cooking may provide valuable cognitive stimulation, particularly for beginners who are learning new skills.
