AI has come to make people become lazy

[HelliumZ]

Artificial intelligence has made many human tasks easier, where artificial intelligence can do the task more accurately and precisely in less time than the time it took humans to do it before. While humans are working, there may be some errors in the work, but artificial intelligence can do the task flawlessly. Then there is no need to employ labor to do that work unnecessarily. That is why there is a fear in the coming days that artificial intelligence will replace human tasks. People are now employing artificial intelligence instead of traffic police on the roads and providing services with more accurate and precise information than humans. Now people will continue to try to employ artificial intelligence in every field, as a result, people will lose some important tasks in the future world, including becoming lazy. As a result, the unemployment rate in the world may increase significantly.

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. n.

Depends where they grow up, in the rural areas nope, City people in the 1st world majoritarian most likely.

Gold fish are more skilled and hard working that the average city person. AI will increase this trend and people will continue to get less skilled, less intelligent and less capable as time progresses. Did we forget that the majority of people are dumb and fat or do I need to pull up hard data facts? Surely AI will help to change this, surely it will make lazy people more efficient and productive. The fact is that most people do not need any kind of time savings from any kind of tool, and actually any such tool will harm most of such people. They do not need more shortcuts, they need someone to force them to go the long way.

No lies told in the subject.  It seems like we are at a starting point where we may begin to de-evolve, if we are not already.  I guess the next biggest thing after AI reaches singularity will be human and AI integration via some sort of chip.

Data has already confirmed that Gen Z has largely devolved from the prior generations, and the generation after them has been completely lost. This is even early comparisons, the full picture will be shown in the coming decades and it will confirm that whatever the idiots pretending not to be Luddites who were embracing bad technology for false reasoning were idiots. In most cases shortcuts do not make you more effective, they make you less competent. Shortcuts can be effective only on a case by case basis, and the person must already be doing other things at high levels to be able to harness the benefits of that shortcut. For how many people does this apply? 1%? Fewer? It is therefore correct to advocate against shortcuts and every aspect of life shows this. Nutrition? Simple healthy diet, no shortcuts no crazy diets. Physical fitness and health? Sustained regular and mixed exercise, not any fad or trendy exercises or shortcuts. When it comes to food and health, people rebound when they take shortcuts (diets) and rebound harder the crazier the shortcut, yet some luddite scammers here want to say this time it will be different with this new shortcut.  

Most people do not learn anything starting with their adult years or for some even earlier, remember this wise lesson.

Well, anyway, AI still needs a lot of improvements in order to be truly effective and not make mistakes. The fact is that if we consider the introduction of AI into the study of organ scans, it does well, but according to surveys, most people still trust only doctors, not AI. Because sometimes he himself very ridiculously changes his mind 180 degrees, and this is at those moments when a person would defend his point of view to the end, because he is sure that he is argumentatively right.

AI is no different from everything else in this regard. Some people will use it wisely and see it as a tool to optimize their own resources, freeing up time and energy for more creative and ambitious tasks. But for the majority, AI is simply a toy, and quite a dangerous one at that, as it replaces the need to do things on your own. And what follows is a substitution, both of concepts and of actions.

That is the exactly the whole point of all of my posts that I have been making in this thread. AI is a tool, like a double-edged sword. I use AI on a daily basis, but you couldn't compare what I am doing to the average person that is barely able to use a smartphone aside from installing apps and scrolling in every direction. Working on 3 monitors simultaneously across multiple scientific disciplines, I have local AI agents doing various things and looking for improvements to optimize this. I am setting this up because the tasks that I am regularly doing of the same kind are several times more complicated than what the agents are doing. One must take care to note a difference:

1. You never do any complicated math, you have now started even asking AI to solve you basic mathematical questions. What is 15% of 80?
2. You do highly complicated math regularly, you have started asking AI to do some basic proofing. Solve this equation under these conditions.

In the first case, you are continuing to dumb yourself down to a toddler. In the second case you are optimizing, because you are solving things that are several times more complicated and rely on the basics which the AI is now automating for you you are not losing anything.

The fact is: Most people will fall into the first group. Accessibility to calculators has proven it, accessibility to cars has proven it, accessibility to maps has proven it, accessibility to even fucking food has proven it. Anyone who denies this is a malicious individual who should be ridiculed.

No matter how good the different AI tools are, it can never replace human beings. if you look at it as a replacement of human intellect, you have already gotten it wrong and and if you become lazy just because with AI assistance you can do things quite faster, you have also missed it.

in tech especially in graphics, an AI design always looks very artificial compared to the design that is done by experienced graphics lead. no professional firm will opt for an AI design in place of an organic one and that makes it a second option relative to what human intelligence can solve. use AI for the purpose it came into the public space for and and you will enjoy every bit of AI functionality.

The key is to use AI as a tool not a replacement. You'll benefit from it not make yourself lazy. If you use AI solely to replace your brain, for example, by copying and pasting answers without thinking you'll end up being lazy, and your abilities will decline. But if you use AI as a tool the results are completely different. With AI, you'll even learn faster, generate more ideas and work more efficiently.

So the bottom line is that AI can be both negative and positive depending on how you adapt to it. Therefore you must be able to use AI as a tool that can make you smarter and more productive not lazier.

Many people perceive AI not as an optimizer, but as a servant meant to do the dirty work. Only while previously such work was considered physical labor, it has now completely spread into the intellectual sphere. People begin to question why they should do something on their own if AI can do it for them for free and quickly. This is especially dangerous for teenagers whose conscious lives are starting entirely in the conditions of AI existence and active use, and I highly doubt that teenagers use it for the optimization of math problems. Therefore, as with any tool, what matters most is who uses it.

Exactly and that is where the issue lies! Most people have adopted tools not as enhancers, but as replicators. There are cases where an invention was arguably great at saving time such as the laundry or drying machine, but in many cases especially since the public adoption of the internet the machines did not cause productivity gains but instead led people to become dumber and fatter. As we have discussed in this thread previously, what used to be a nice 10 minute walk is now a 3 minute car ride depending on the local conditions and the majority of the people are fat. Did they gain anything by saving these 7 minutes? No, they only lost things.

This is the only objective truth of these things. This is highly dangerous for most people and especially for teenagers and children as you bring them up as well. As you can see these days many people train their children to be zombies of consumption at the earliest age possible, I have seen so many toddlers in public endlessly scrolling Tik Tok and other brain dumbing applications. Surely giving them access to AI will make things better.

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.

AI can make people lazy if they use it to avoid learning completely. But it can also help beginners start faster. The real skill is still knowing what looks good, what to change, and how to guide the tool properly. So I don’t think AI replaces learning. It just changes what people need to learn.

That's the idea. But most people don't see it this way. They just want everything in their hands with little or no effort. It's all about convenience. Especially young generations who don't want to do absolutely anything. Kids and youngsters these days don't want to study or do things on their own. What better way than letting AI do all of the things humans do?

The future where AI takes over the world is inevitable. Just like in the Terminator movies. AI will keep growing until it becomes the "indispensable" tool of our human life. Some rich people think AI will take over human jobs (Elon Musk and Bill Gates) in the long run. They're not wrong. As a result, more people will get lazier than ever. Just you wait and see...

This is actually the most sensitive topic for me, because I am a mom to a 3-year-old boy, and all these things are happening right before my eyes. I do not give my child a phone for his own independent use. He does not watch cartoons at all; he can only look at a few photos and videos of himself from my phone, and this time is extremely limited for him. Plus, we do it together, meaning I (or another family member) always control this process. Not once in 3 years have I given him a phone just to shut him up or distract him, even when it would have helped me with something as basic as going to the restroom.

But out of my entire social circle, I am the only one who is so principled on this matter. I come to pick up my son from kindergarten and see other parents handing phones to their kids the second they see them. That is, they are even dressing the child to take them home while the little one scrolls the screen or watches YouTube. It is terrible, and I feel so sad and sick to my stomach about what I witness every day. And I am terrified that at some point, I won't be able to shield my child from the influence of such an environment.

With regard to learning, of course, it cannot be fully assisted by AI even though it is only limited to information, sometimes we need to learn it physically not theoretically so it depends on what learning, but what you said is true, this can make someone lazy even though the method is not wrong, it's just that something excessive is not right like relying on AI completely even though it is true because it can but from another point of view it is wrong because it has a bad side which is making us lazy.

Everything has it advantages, learning physically, theoretically, or practically are all advantageous. AI has only made learning more easier for people, but who wants to be lazy as a result of it is their loss, and whoever chooses to make good use of it will see it results. AI is not capable of forming human's direction, but it only follows toward the direction which human showed it. AI only obey human's instruction, and it works per our commands, so whatever it does either good or bad that is what the instructor chooses for it to do. We can't just blame something that depends on someone to perform a specific function or action.

It depends on one's perspective on how they see AI. I personally see it as a helping tool.
We can't depend completely on AI to do things for us but we can surely use it as our assistant.
The results may or may not be perfect but whatever AI gives us, it's our duty to verify the result and add our touch to it.
I have seen AI generating unnecessary code for a simple thing but at times it has also generated solutions much faster than anything else.
So we need to be cognizant of the fact that AI is here to help but we must do our due diligence to use it properly.

Let me tell you something buddy, letting AI do all the things you should do is making you dumber and dumber until you become an idiot who can no longer think for himself, AI is there to only aid you do more complex things at a faster pace and not the basic things, AI can give you great suggestions when embarking on a project, but it is left to you to finetune it to fit in perfectly.

Prompts can make mistakes, it does on a steady and if your braincells are already made non-functional from overdependence on AI, you may not even be able to identify these obvious leaks and correct it before marking it ready for use. I've done lots of things with AI and I still see the benefits of using your brain even when using AI. If you use AI from the standpoint of laziness rather than work efficiency, then you're going to look stupid before long. I've used AI a lot to know that before you use AI, you must use your brain first to prompt it correctly and even after using AI, you must still use your brain again to ascertain the effectiveness of the results.

My friend works as a metallurgical engineer and he has to calculate metal structures for an hour. And before that, he always had to keep a lot of books and tables, which he refers to when calculating strength. But now he told me that in addition to his calculations, he also asks ChatGPT to make a verification calculation that will allow him to check with his calculations and find errors there. Is it laziness? No. But I think that when he stops doing the calculations himself and only forgives the bot about it, then it will be too lazy.

[JoyceBTC]

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?

People will always want to talk about the bad side of something which majorly resulted from misuse and at the end they forget it also as a good side . Ai has impacted a lot, helped enhance productivity and also served as an assistant to people in order to make work easier and faster. But it turns out to be a disadvantage to some people as to making people lazy because of how it has been used.

We are currently in the era where technology is evolving, new inventions will only make people change the way they do things from previously to a more enhanced method and not stop them from doing it.
I believe Ai has also made some persons smarter too, it two sided.

You're right when you said that everything has it advantage and also disadvantages, I'm still wondering where this laziness is coming from. I understand that there are some things we have been doing with our bare hands but ever since the adoption of AI we no longer do all this things by ourselves, still there are some task that AI can't assist us with so there's nothing like laziness rather it is more like division of labour. We tend to leave those major task that requires enough strength for AI to do while we do the minor ones so that's just it, rather we don't need to rely too much on AI.

[STT]

I think the correct word is specialization more then lazy because the ability for AI to take over a task already established and known well enough to be repeated by computers means the more variable complex task can become the real target for human work.   Its ultimately about allowing the best suited tool for the job and humans can do anything and everything including boring repetitive jobs but it might as well be the skilled and too variable jobs that computers cannot compete as easily on.
