ai’s becoming a type of drug addiction.

spoken to a lot of friends recently who are increasingly offloading their thinking and mental cognition on to LLMs
grocery lists, dealing with a sensitive work situation, relationship resolution, coding tasks, emails, documents etc
mental atrophy is very real and accelerating quicker than i thought
the obvious result from this is an increased reliance on ai to function - like an addiction - but in this case for vital human cognition.
whether thats good or bad isn’t really something i want to comment but whats clear is we’re going to need a lot more compute.
and i mean a LOT more.
there is no compute capex bubble.
