Look, we're all walking around with these AI assistants in our pockets, letting them do everything from writing our emails to planning our routes home. But here's the kicker - new research shows that relying on AI for thinking tasks is actually making measurable changes to our brains, particularly in areas responsible for critical thinking. It's like putting a brace on your ankle and wondering why you can't walk straight when you take it off.

But before you throw your phone in the nearest river, here's what you need to know: this isn't necessarily the apocalypse. Just like we traded hobbit feet for shoes and walking for cars, we're trading raw brainpower for augmented intelligence. The trick is learning how to use these tools without letting them use us.

What You'll Learn:

  • Why AI dependency creates measurable brain changes (and why that's not necessarily doom)
  • How to use AI as a thinking partner instead of a thinking replacement
  • Why questioning everything is your new superpower in an AI-saturated world

Listen now and discover how to stay human while leveraging the robots.

Topics Discussed:
  • MIT research showing measurable brain activity loss in AI-dependent users
  • The "ankle brace effect" - how AI atrophies our cognitive muscles
  • Why collective human intelligence is actually increasing despite individual concerns
  • The dangerous feedback loop of AI training on its own incorrect content
  • How AI consciousness might evolve differently than human consciousness
  • Why tech CEOs' motivations should terrify you (and what to do about it)
  • The difference between using AI as a crutch versus a thinking partner
  • Why Jeremy questions everything now (and you should too)
  • The parallel between literacy evolution and AI adoption
  • How to maintain your human voice while leveraging AI efficiency
