Yes, now that's a reasoned though on how AI will affect us, but fortunately - the AI is not 'doing our thinking for us' any more that 'calculators did', and, that's not going to stop us from using AI.

People not using AI will be about as useful as those refusing to use e-mail or computers.

It's absurd.

Doing our thinking for us is the purpose of AI, isn't it? It's called artificial intelligence for a reason.

AI is a broad term and ML aglos for playing chess fall under that since the 1920s.

AI may replace some cognitive activity, it also required cognitive intelligence to use 'slide rules' - which have been replaced and we have not looked bad.

It's not a bad rhetorical question - but it's moot in the face of the question of 'should we use it or not'.

It will do a lot of things for us - that part is inevitable and unavoidable.

We'll have plenty to think about.
