Ask HN: I've been using AI for 3 years,I've lost the ability to think for myself

As long you can open up a browser and tell HN about your experience there's ain't a problem.

It's a tool and I'm using it too. You forget things when you don't steady repeat them. It's a use it or lose it situation, but a win-win for your self empowerment.

So, how do you use it? May be you just need to change a little bit in your usage, like me switched on verbose mode answering so i can read what's actually being done during thinking steps and code. That keeps me busy babysitting that energy sucker. ...

Bingo! Not using it is foolish! It's incredible and saves so much time, if used properly.

I would tell AI my thought process and ideas, and ask it to help me write interview questions or generate an article. If I'm not satisfied—for example, if the wording is inappropriate, the language style is off, or something I wanted is missing—I'll have it revise until I'm happy with it. Now I rarely type on my own anymore. It's mostly copy and paste.

AI is useful, but I think structured learning tools still matter a lot, especially when explaining basic human concepts in a simple way.
manueltgomes•42m ago
I still remember that impulse, before AI, of googling everything before thinking a bit. AI as a technology is incredibly new and we're still figuring out how to use it, but things will stabilize. 'googling' everything also didn't take away our ability to think, so as long as you're aware, you can do something about it.

Thank you~~ I was thinking of giving up on using AI, but your words have given me confidence again."
