This is a good parallel. In the 90s when I learned to drive I was quite good at navigating. Now google maps is on a screen in my car telling me where to go whenever I drive beyond my most common routes.
Really all the research telling us about AI skills atrophy.. We should have guessed from previous experience.
Old people my entire life have made fun of younger people for “not being able to read maps” or something.
But I’ve never seen anyone follow a GPS so religiously into so many obvious dead ends than elderly Uber drivers.
