@jak2k crazy how they don't call their new AI disorder "burnout" bc it's mental instead of physical or emotional? I'm not really getting how "cognitive fatigue, headaches, buzzing, slowed decision-making, & intention to quit" does not qualify as some type of burnout.

@jak2k But i am also considering that the AI brainrot may be so severe with many of their participants that they HAD to call it something else to get somewhat honest answers, since even with having to PHYSICALLY LEAVE THEIR COMPUTER to reduce symptoms these folks may be emotionally disinclined to admit even if they were experiencing burnout since it's exactly the pe of thing AI is supposed to reduce in theory.
