alt Hacker NewsSo social media significantly reduces the ability to think critically. AI, if brought up too early in one's life, will reduce the ability to think at all. It makes sense, imo. Who needs to think when you have lost your ability to interact with others, can work from home, can get groceries without leaving the house, have decided to not procreate.

I don't know how you can type that with a straight face; look at critical thinking skills of the average boomer, who grew up without any social media.

Not quite.
The screen time issues you're referring to is based in passive consumption, and vertical scrolling shrinks the brain.
Creating, engaging with an activity or interaction is completely different than consumption. Night and day.
