Because normal work behind a computer is essentially 90% of what was called cheating in schools back in the day?

Is something cheating when the resource you use to cheat will essentially always be 1 device away? Just call your device your cerebral prosthesis, it will always be there anyway. It’s how humanity grows and people become more effective.

In my view, yes, as it means you’re having to laboriously fetch all your data from the cloud rather than having it in L2 cache. Knowing stuff and being able to compute within the confines of your skull is useful.

If we’re to offload all of it, are we even human any more, or just shrews with calculators?

Unless you have a Neuralink implant, that's a recipe for extremely low productivity. It will hurt these kids' future.
