The reliance on smartphones, spell-checkers, and large language models (LLMs) leads to deteriorating mental abilities such as memorizing numbers and spelling. As society adopts these technologies for various tasks, individuals find themselves less inclined to engage cognitive functions that were once routine. This shift entails not only potential benefits, such as enhanced healthcare, but also significant drawbacks to the individual's mental acuity as practices evolve. The diminished need for memorization or spelling fosters a reliance on tools at the expense of cognitive skills.
People rely more on large language models (LLMs) as information sources for academics, medical advice, and writing assistance, altering societal norms and practices.
Viewing technology's impact on memory, it becomes apparent that reliance on devices diminishes the brain's capacity to memorize phone numbers and spell accurately.
