Yeah, I'm really conflicted here

I don't think that we should not use tools to offload tedious work

However there must be tradeoffs, right?

Take physical fitness for an example. We built machines to automate a ton of physical labour for us. Many of us no longer work long hours in hard labour jobs. A single excavator driver can move more earth faster than a team of people with shovels could even hope to

How's our physical fitness as a society these days? Yes part of that problem is that we eat terrible foods, but still. The sedentary lifestyle plays its part in the obesity epidemic too

I think it's reasonable to speculate that "we no longer need to think much, just pilot the AI" will similarly decrease our mental capabilities
