Abstract

Many worry that AI use will erode human cognition. We discuss evidence suggesting that offloading cognition to AI can impede skill acquisition and lead to skill decay, but risks depend on how AI is used. We also consider whether our basic cognitive abilities might prove more resilient to this erosion.
