@zuess05 We can probably call it *EnshittAIfication*

- Early phase: genuinely useful, high-quality idea
- Growth phase: cool features, great intent, and rapid development
- Late phase: declining interest, real constraints show up, no value

@wisdomXplorer Does doomscrolling on X count as 'doing something'?

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@shariar_design cybersecurity
human cognition
emotional understanding

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@TheGBreaker it is literally the same type of doomscrolling

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@vartika_debugs this is a very popular opinion rn
And yes, it is true

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@therajiv very true. the labor and effort that goes into understanding something is what builds cognition and Ai is taking that labor away from us. Great for saving a couple of minutes but definitely not what helps you become better at the job you do

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@Samina_Maqdum and that ability to understand is what AI is affecting negatively.
As for your point on research, totally agreed. The art of digging into multiple resources is imp. it forces you to understand, comprehend and form your own opinions.
With AI, those crucial steps get missed!

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@Samina_Maqdum I don't agree with your point about phone numbers. First, it isn't related to AI (people stopped remembering phone numbers when mobile phones became common). And second, I don't think the ability to remember matters. What does matter is the ability to understand.

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@SteveLovesAmmo kinda what we are seeing happen irl

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@harshilmathur between 80-90% of Ai demos fail in production and that I think says a lot.
I'm not discounting AI's potential, just saying that it needs actual experts to excel and not everyone can just use AI and make magic

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@tunguz Maybe because that's what Humans are for!

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@CodeByNZ Me: Server Down
You: But that's 2 words
Me: Yes, you are right. It is a two-word phrase when you clearly asked for a single word response. Let me rewrite in just 1 word. No fluff, no unnecessary words:
"The AI Server You Are Trying To Reach is Currently Down"

Scared enough?

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@DanielSmidstrup It is just amplifying what your natural instinct is.
if you want to be productive, that's what AI lets you do and if you are just looking to be lazy, Ai very well facilitates that too

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@omgsidewalks Humans.

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@Gavel_on_X Being interesting enough that people don't realize how wrong you are!

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@iluminatibot You need to use AI for everything and that's the only way to be productive and impactful

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@Thebiglade You don't.
End of story

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@dev_maims Yet the "coaching" industry isn't dying.
Case in point: courses on how to build a courses and make money

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@mayuri_3015 People using AI to comment on posts posted by people using AI.

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

@sflorimm Umm.. it is a lukewarm take at best. But yeah, it is true. You cannot run an automated farm unless you know farming first

[Emma Wilson @OlwaysOnline]

AI isn't replacing great physicians. It's removing barriers between their ideas & execution.
In my interview, Dr. Negin Rajaipour shares how #AI helped her build a telehealth practice, publish a bestseller & rethink what's possible for women in medicine - https://t.co/TucnKNyF6G
