I can absolutely imagine this much knowledge on tap making us more impatient and less resilient. When I was a kid, there was already a bit of "why do I even need to know how to do this when calculators exist?" This is that on steroids and more broadly.

However, there's a counter force, too, as there always is. I'm also pursuing new areas of interest and exploration where the early friction and amount to learn would have either completely fatigued me or scared me off. It's like having 24 hour access to a really good mentor and thought partner.
