AI has come to make people become lazy

[Satofan44]

You’re right AI was created to reduce the workload because there are certain tasks that AI can handle. However, if this leads people to become lazy that’s wrong, because in my opinion that would mean we’re completely dependent on AI and that shouldn’t be the case.

That is pretty much the only thing that is has led to recently, laziness and occasionally even to the death of stupid humans who are willing to listen to LLM chatbots (whether they are children or adults is irrelevant). AI can not safely handle any kind of task these days -- you must always check the work that it produces. If you manipulate it in a way it can even fail to summarize two numbers such as 5 plus 5. This shows that there is no cognition involved at all, and as much as LLMs tend to hallucinate their knowledge, humans are hallucinating even more that there is any kind of cognition here involved. Just because it is able to solve certain types of tasks, that does not mean it is on the level of a human of any kind of age -- otherwise many of my advanced algorithms are on the level of humans with 10 Phd's. 

We need to use AI in moderation even though there are no set limits, we shouldn’t rely on it entirely.

When has this worked? Most humans do not want to set a limit on any kind activity that is damaging to them. There should be a variety of limits, but that does not necessarily mean that they will be effective.

Yes, you are right in present time technology is evolved according to time and need but without refusing human worth. In different fields individuals becomes more active due to AI instead of become lazy man.

This is literally not a thing aside from a small subset of AI users, with most focus being on software engineers. Just because you can spew out more bullshit work, that does not mean that you have become more active or that you are working better.

And also AI gives you best opportunities for learning and still humans are required to updated these systems and also to train people.

It does not do that at all any more than a search engine does (which it does not), you are hallucinating.

I think people were already lazy enough without AI, especially in the 21st century.I think people were already lazy enough without AI, especially in the 21st century. AI simply adds to the set of tools that cause many people to forget how to think for themselves. But I wouldn't call it a direct consequence of AI's emergence and widespread use. People in general have never really been inclined toward reasoning and independent thinking, it has always been easier to shift that responsibility onto someone else. It's just that now that someone else is AI, which people consult on any matter, build relationships with, and task with making decisions instead of making them on their own.

If you see AI as something that could make you do absolutely nothing but just vibe code and hope that it makes you rich, then you are not going to get anywhere with it. AI is good for prototype and you could get ideas and that would not be bad for you at all. But if we are talking about something that would be just that simple, and nothing else changes, then I am sorry but you are going to end up with not a good result at all, we are going to see this be a bit of a different thing.

We should realize that we need to do better with AI, it's a tool, you still need to work hard and use it very well so that you can be better than others. Think of it like guitar, yes you can play the guitar if you know just 3 notes, I am sure you can play something, but you are not going to be Jimmy Hendrix, so master AI if you want to, and be better at it, not be lazy with it.

Can I ask everyone a couple of questions?
-How has the advent of the calculator changed people? Have they become weaker at math or faster at solving problems?
-When GPS came along, did people lose their sense of direction, or did they simply stop spending time and energy on it?
-Has the car made people less capable of walking, or has it simply expanded their range of action?

What we need to understand now is that AI is only a tool not a replacement. So, AI can indeed make ordinary people a little better and smarter making them much more productive. However, those who are lazy will be marginalized by the presence of AI technology.

Furthermore, we must also embrace the perspective that almost all technology always makes us lazier, but overall we can rise to a higher level if we can truly utilize it by continuously adapting. Furthermore, we must be adaptive and not dependent on AI. Because if you can master AI as a tool and combine it with hard work you will be more productive. So, don't be lazy. You must be able to master the tools especially when doing difficult tasks.

I was using one of the AI tools to do some graphic design and it came out so beautiful as a result. I was very happy with the result I got through AI because creating it, it wasn't stressful and the result was productive.

 Normally, if you give me a computer device to do graphic design I wont be able to perform it better but with AI it was success. Since AI can give me good graphic design, I dont think it will have that urge to go learn graphic design.  I think AI already have the result of what people are supposed to do with their hands. There wont be reason to learn or to work because AI can give people what they want without stress.

Do automatically opening doors make people lazy? Do escalators or elevators make people lazy? No, but they can make life more convenient and it's all about whether they are utilized in a good way. If you can increase your productivity, for example getting it to write code while you just vet whether the outcome is suitable, then that is actually an excellent time saving device. If you can write a lot more code because of it and release lots more useful projects, then you could be giving greater benefit to the world. However there is a very fine balance to find, between over using it and not vetting the data it produces, and using it to maximum economic useful effect.

It wont need to make people lazy, they already are.  You are just stating exactly why its irrational not to expect AI to develop and expand in its industry, besides any actual useful functionality its going to succeed quite obviously due to this laziness factor in the developed or 'rich' part of the world.   Hard working more practical economies lesser amounts but I still believe it has a large global influence from the modern global trade and pricing shared across the world.

I can answer that both have happened. Often, both happen to the exact same people, not even different ones. Speaking for myself, I have a very poor sense of direction; for me, GPS and especially Waze are a lifesaver. However, when another air raid alert starts in Kyiv and EW systems jam the connection and navigation, I find myself forced to find my way "manually." It takes me more time and makes me very anxious because I feel blind and lost, but so far, I have always managed to navigate back to places I know, and from there, move along a familiar route.

I agree, before Ai we have lazy people in our communities so AI is not the reason why people are lazy, its not an excuse for anyone for being lazy Ai is here to help to reduce stress and increase productivity, we have to take advantage of of AI for our own good, in this generation people don't like stress and AI has solved that problem for mankind.

Without Human input AI won't work, there's a corporation in the process, AI ought to make man work smartly without going through hard time, if you're lazy in this generation of AI just know you're not a smart person. AI is our assistant that help us to deliver quality work and production.

Whether or not AI makes you lazy depends on the individual. If you're inherently lazy, then the presence of AI will automatically make you even lazier. For example, lazy people often use excuses like I'm tired or I'll do it later. Now with AI lazy people will say Let AI do all the work later.

However, if they view AI as a tool and continue to adapt, they will use AI to work smarter not harder. So, it can be concluded that AI isn't the cause of laziness it's actually you who makes you lazy. Because fundamentally without quality human input, AI only produces mediocre output and lazy people who use AI will continue to produce mediocre work. Ultimately, people who continue to adapt to AI developments will understand how to utilize AI and will fare much better in the future.

The job of graphic designers is at stake due to AI though a client who is not conversant with AI for graphic designi
 would definitely has to consult an graphic designers for tge job cinsequently the designer can use AI for a swift job, however now that a lot of people had started to use AI tools obviously they would do their job themselves, I did play around with WhatsApp Meta AI for some graphic designer Lo and behold the output was awesome and perfect even better than the design from human designer my fear is that many employed graphic designers would be laid off in big companies.

While artificial intelligence (AI) makes things easier in many areas, it also makes people lazy, but it allows some people to do things faster and better. This is directly proportional to how AI is used. AI solves a large number of problems and makes a significant contribution in many fields.

The perspective on AI is sufficient to answer many questions. If we look at it from the point of view that it makes people lazy, this might be true, but if we look at it from the point of view that it helps many people in their work, this is also true. The important point is how AI is used and what problems it solves.

This is sometimes we have to look at the subject not the object because in this case what really needs to be considered is ourselves not the AI and we have to decide whether this will be a very worth it help that makes us actually become more qualified because we managed to utilize this well for our self-improvement or this will make us even lazier.

If we only rely on the AI then everything will remain gray because they can have both impacts and our own choices should make the situation change because the AI is just an object and we ourselves as humans can control and make clear goals here.

It's in governments and Elites' (the wealthy) best interests for people to stay lazy and dumb. Let AI do all of the work, while people remain slaves to the system. A perfect way to exert control over our society. One of the cornerstones of a totalitarian state. Combine AI with CBDCs, and nothing should stand in the government's way.

Most people these days want the easy way to do things. Convenience goes above all else. Only a very small portion will actually care how to do things manually (or on their own). Future generations will be even worse. Nothing we can do to stop this. It's already too late.

Even though the use of AI has increased, the demand for graphic designers has not decreased significantly because I am still getting work on Fiverr. But the worrying thing is that the work done through AI tools is perfect but it is easy to understand that it is not the work done by humans. A graphic designer performs the work through hard work and tries to perfect it. I fear that in the future, large organizations will lay off employees and increase their dependence on AI tools, resulting in a large number of skilled workers losing their jobs.

You have to improve your skills with time because the work done by AI tools often does not match the psychological strategies of humans. There will always be a demand for human-made works and in the future, the evaluation of skills will increase.

As we can see, ALL technology either improves our quality of life or SIMPLIFIES our daily routines. I guess you could call it "laziness", but… for those who don’t like technology, I always suggest digging a cave, making a bow and arrows, and going out to hunt game-for a truly natural way of life!
Oh yeah, and cook over a fire started by rubbing sticks together or using flint...

P.S. Hey fellow Kyivite, I’m from Kyiv too!
When there’s no GPS and Waze isn’t working as expected, I just plot the route I need from point A to point B on Google Maps and stick to that route-it works!
