Another Atlantic article that appears to hit.

The TLDR is if you seek higher cognition and use AI as a tool alongside that practice you’ll be fine. If you lean on AI to avoid cognition then you’ll backslide into the primordial goo as a person.

The key skills you learn from math is not arithmetic. If you're rationale for math not being helpful is that you don't find yourself doing arithmetic, you're not focusing on the main takeaway from math. The key skill is problem solving and logical processing.

    Sure, but that isn't the point I'm making.

    Consider that my analogy was referring specifically to arithmetic, while we have calculators in our pockets.

    Consider a different analogy if you want, spell checkers.

    If they came out now, I'm sure you'd have people arguing that people will never learn how to spell.
