The Real Power of AI Right Now Is Cognitive Offloading, Not Intelligence
AI isn’t thinking for people. It’s freeing up their mental space to focus on more important things. Keeping track of threads, summarizing long contexts, organizing half-formed ideas, reminding you what you already know. That’s not intelligence, but it *is* leverage. It *is* changing how people work and live. The interesting question isn’t is it smart? but what happens when memory, drafting, and synthesis stop being scarce? That changes how humans allocate attention more than how machines reason.
