Same here.this has nothing to do with AI - but has everything to do with how intrusive technology in our lives and how we interact with that technology.
My handwriting has become appallingly bad as i stopped having the need to keep written notes for work based things.
I'd argue that humans have already lost their ability to communicate, at least in person. There are generations now who've effectively grown up pretty much only communicating using texting or similar online apps. Their ablity to communicate in person or be anything but extremely defensive and see conflict in every statement has been substantially reduced. I genuinely fear for the world.I have just watched Grammarly's new advert where it shows the programme virtually writing an important email for the person who should be sending it to her co-workers.
Could the use of AI lead to humans losing their ability to communicate?
Judging by some of the incomprehensible emails I receive at work, I think that horse sailed long ago..Could the use of AI lead to humans losing their ability to communicate?
As long as there's a graph involved you'll be just fine.I have just watched Grammarly's new advert where it shows the programme virtually writing an important email for the person who should be sending it to her co-workers.

I've only watched the first 10 minutes so far. But agree with everything she's said to that point. Will watch the rest later, but it did make me think one thing though:Another thread to drop physicist Angela Collier’s AI video into:
She nails it IMHO.

It's my day job (communicating with graphs, but also verbally). I think that my command of the English language has gotten pretty good these past few years.As long as there's a graph involved you'll be just fine.
Did you hear the part in the YouTube video Tony linked to, upthread, where she talks about AI doing TB diagnostics?Whether we call it artificial intelligence or machine intelligence on some narrowly defined tasks clever 'puters are already better than humans, even highly trained ones. A student at work was able to show that AI was better than trained radiologists at diagnosing pneumonia from lung ultrasound data.

“We were a little shocked. It had a perfect record of separating the COVID from the non-COVID pneumonia (ultrasounds),” said Robert Arntfield, a Lawson researcher and medical director of London Health Sciences Centre’s critical care trauma centre.“I’m willing to acknowledge that 100 per cent seems too good to be true, but in the science we’ve done and the way we’ve conducted it, it’s sufficiently strong that we’re very confident there’s a signal there, kind of like a QR code buried in the lungs that we can’t see but the computer vision can extract.”
The doctor on the study was just floored.

Looking forward to the site's first AI member.
