okay so this is embarrassing to admit but here it is
took a reasoning test in 2022, scored pretty well.
Retook the same test last month out of curiosity,
dropped significantly, like not a small difference.
The only major change in my life is using AI tools daily for work and the worst part?
i kind of knew something was off before the test.
I noticed i couldn't sit with a problem anymore without immediately opening chatgpt, like my brain forgot how to be uncomfortable for even 5 minutes memory is worse. attention is worse, i feel slower in conversations.
but my productivity at work has never been higher lol
so what is actually happening here , are we trading long term cognitive health for short term output?
Has anyone else noticed this or is it just me being paranoid ⊙﹏⊙
genuinely asking because i don't want to just accept this as normal (｡ŏ﹏ŏ)
