@RosannaSibora@fosstodon.org You know... this makes me wonder... I'm two years post stroke. I still have trouble with my right hand, especially my index finger. I keep defaulting to this awkward left-handed mouse, and I awkwardly type with only six fingers unless I REALLY force myself. Therapists tell me 'use it or lose it' is a real thing I need to be aware of. I wonder if this is a similar phenomenon.

@Longspeak@bardicperspiration.club @RosannaSibora@fosstodon.org I believe it 100% apt. AI shouldn't be used as a mental crutch or substitute for higher-level of any level of thinking, but I think those who approach it this way are going to experience mental atrophy much like the physical atrophy undoubtedly you are trying your best to overcome. Bless you and keep it up
