flashing_lights··on Ask HN: I've been using AI for 3 years,I've lost the ability to think for myself
I feel the same way at times. There was a time I used to love writing, communicating and often "starting from scratch", but in the recent years where ChatGPT started replacing college assignments, I slowly stopped thinking originally, and started a feedback loop where everything I write, no matter what it is, has to get "checked" by an AI first.

I think changes comes slowly though, my way of starting change was writing this all by myself
