‘The Tragedy of the #Cognitive Commons: How ✨️ A I Could Disrupt the Regeneration of Professional Expertise.’ “Additional empirical evidence documents three pathways through which A I adoption undermines independent capability. First, practitioners who rely heavily on A I assistance show measurably reduced independent performance … Second, A I-assisted performance does not transfer to unassisted contexts … Third, workers who retain validation capacity are already failing to exercise it. ” https://arxiv.org/abs/2607.29380

While I can see some #Accessibility benefits to this, more generally it seems like a #Design approach to treat 👤 humans as 📦️ cargo. The concept of the journey over the destination lost to those who never take time to enjoy the serendipity of the world. https://interestingengineering.com/transportation/mobility-pods-switch-between-roads-railways-and-cable-cars-with-passengers-inside
