Doesn't this worry people? its like how after smartphones became the norm a lot of people didn't even notice they lost their ability to write with a pen until they try and go "oh my god how could this happen??". Not only are these ai things often full of shit and will give people incorrect, life endangering results. But just in general to live in times such as these and see people reduce themselves voluntarily to a cattle like state is the most dystopian thing i think i've ever seen.
Think how many politicians in positions of power are already one of these half lives already and how its only going to get worse until techbros move onto their next "next big thing" hustle when the bubble bursts.
