A lot of interesting replies. In the thread I keep saying "I don't care" and that is true about AI in general, but I am fascinated by the addiction/shame aspect. Especially since AI usage is being adopted by so many intellectuals and academics. These people famously like thinking!
Kate HolzemerAnother thought: in his statement, Hank Green expressed quite a lot of shame about the "dopamine hit" he gets from using AI. As a non-AI user I don't really know what he's referring to here. Is the AI voice flattering him while also doing his job (presumably poorly)? Because that's big weird.
