    Every new technology 100 per cent replaces know-how. That’s why most of us will starve to death or die in the elements if civilization disintegrates tomorrow.

    Having been relieved of the need to hunt, grow food and build shelter, most of us have no idea how to do it.

    The hours of work that AI saves you is the work of thinking and crafting.

    You will 100 per cent lose skill if you use AI.

    The only question the table is, is it worth it? 

    The danger of AI is the danger we’ve seen elsewhere only more serious.

    Tech companies like Microsoft have revolutionized how we do business only to keep raising the price of access. What we once paid to purchase every few years we now pay monthly subscription fees for. 

    There are free options like Open Office, GIMP, Audition etc.  

    But the more reliant we become on complex AI and automation tools that are expensive and less likely to be duplicated for free, the more likely we are to find ourselves suddenly frozen out of partipation in professional life.

    That is, unless we retain the skills to work without AI.

    As for youth using AI to write all their school work, that’s literally already happening.
