The world loves artificial intelligence. Almost billion people They use Openai products – this happened in just two years. It is Playbook Silicon Valley: Make it great, make it cheap, make us addicted, then discover how to make billions.

We love Amnesty International because it offers Cognitive shortcuts On a completely new scale. But … this will not end well for most of us. We will allow AI to take over some tasks, and soon we find that they do each of them. We will lose our minds, functions and chances.

But it should not happen in this way. Here’s how to see the path forward – and take a different path.

The beginning of the end

In March 2023, Chatgpt was first used. Now I am using Chatgpt or Claude every day. I have made artificial intelligence mental faster and more productive. But I also feel a cognitive laziness.

I used to verify the artificial intelligence drafts. But now, it gives me a good first draft 90 % of the time, and I lose the motivation to check its work.

A year ago, I believed that the workforce would be divided into “those who do not use artificial intelligence” and “those who do”. Now I see this is a mistake. Within five years, everyone will use artificial intelligence. The real gap will be among those who run artificial intelligence – and those who are thinking about their thinking.

How to use external sources of our thinking

Humans have always emptied cognitive work. Before books, keep the entire Bards from ILIAD. Technology is now an extension of our brains, allowing us to cancel mathematics, navigating and notes.
Amnesty International is different. He can handle almost any cognitive task, and she feels productivity. So Amnesty International is the use of external sources It starts innocently. You ask artificial intelligence to formulate an email. It does it well and provides you with 10 minutes. After that, you ask him to specify a presentation. It’s its nails.

It begins to use it for more complex tasks, such as setting a strategy. Start based on artificial intelligence to do work, slowly, atrophy of your skills.

Microsoft and Carnegie Mellon She released a paper Gen AI’s show can reduce our ability to think critical. When knowledge workers are confident of the product of artificial intelligence, they are less likely to use their brains.

People who trust artificial intelligence (gay) depend on themselves to be their facts. But there are two problems with that: 1) We Exaggeration in estimating our ability To determine the errors of artificial intelligence, and 2) the temptation to overcome the verification of facts becomes stronger.

Artificial intelligence drivers against passengers

In the next ten years, the workforce will be divided into two groups: artificial intelligence drivers and artificial intelligence passengers.

Artificial intelligence passengers will Fortunately, their cognitive work is delegated to artificial intelligence. They will stick a claim to Chatgpt, copy the result, and submit it as their own.

In the short term, they will be rewarded for doing faster work. But since artificial intelligence works with less supervision of human being, passengers will be judged as a surplus to add anything to the output of artificial intelligence.

Artificial intelligence drivers You will insist on directing artificial intelligence. They will use artificial intelligence as a first draft and accurately verify its work. They will sometimes turn it on and allocate time to think.

In the long run, the economic gap between these groups will expand significantly. Artificial intelligence drivers will claim an impatient share of wealth, while passengers are replaced.

How to be an Amnesty International driver

Make yourself the head of Amnesty International in these ways:

  1. Start with what you know. Use artificial intelligence in areas where you have previous experience; Be a criticism of its output.
  2. Do a conversation instead of requesting an answer. Amnesty International does not ask, “What should we do with our marketing budget?” Giving artificial intelligence restrictions, inputs, options and discussion with them.
  3. It is very nutritious. Be an active participant. Do not assume that the output is good enough. Challenge yourself to ask, “He is Is this a good recommendation? “
  4. Practicing active doubt. Constantly investigating artificial intelligence with your point of view. “Isn’t this reduced the occupation of the danger of this project?”
  5. Resistance to the use of external sources, each first draft. The empty page is frightening, but it is necessary to activate your mind.
  6. Make the final call, and own it. Artificial intelligence should help in every average to the high risk that it takes, but it does not make the final call. Own your decisions as a human being.

Your mind is a terrible thing to waste

With artificial intelligence, you now have an intellectual partner that is available around the clock throughout the week and has “experience” on any theme.

But you are also at a crossroads. You will see that many colleagues penetrate “active thinking” and the use of external sources to make decisions to artificial intelligence. Many even will not realize that their cognitive skills have been included until this happens. By that time, it will be difficult to return.

Don’t be this person. Use Amnesty International to challenge and strengthen your thinking, not to replace it.

The question is not, “Will you use artificial intelligence?” The question is, “What kind of artificial intelligence users do you want to be: a driver or passenger program?”
