Is ChatGPT Making Us Dumb? How HERE AND NOW AI Empowers You

Navigating the AI Revolution with Knowledge and Skill

The rise of Artificial Intelligence, especially Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, has sparked a global debate. Are these powerful tools enhancing our capabilities, or are they making us “dumb” by outsourcing critical thinking and problem-solving?

Recent studies suggest that youngsters may be at the highest risk of over-reliance on AI. This raises a crucial question: How do we embrace AI while ensuring it empowers us instead of diminishing our abilities? At HERE AND NOW AI, we believe the answer lies in education and proactive skill-building.

The Risks of Over-Reliance on AI

Articles like the one featured in NDTV highlight valid concerns. With AI making it easy to generate text, solve problems, and even write code, there is a danger of losing core skills such as critical thinking, independent problem-solving, and creativity.

The argument is simple: if we depend too heavily on AI to think for us, we risk weakening the very abilities that define human intelligence—analysis, synthesis, and innovation.

The Other Side: AI as an Enabler

But the narrative isn’t entirely negative. The key lies in how we use AI. Generative AI, including ChatGPT, can boost productivity, enhance creativity, and help us focus on high-value tasks.

AI can:

Assist with research.
Help brainstorm ideas.
Automate repetitive work.

The real goal isn’t to replace human thought, but to augment it, freeing us to focus on strategy, creativity, and innovation.
