I used to remember phone numbers, everyone did, before cell phones. Now, I can’t even remember my wife’s cell, because I don’t have to. Big problem when my cell’s battery charge is down, and I have to tell some else what my wife’s number is So, yeah, I agree, the more that computers and AI do for us, the dumber we get.
People at work are amazed that I remember numbers. I use a desk phone so I use numbers a lot
You can remember them when you need to just like kids can add cashiers change when they need to
It’s the switching from analog to digital that people are so dumb about. They think it’s good to use just numbers. They don’t realize they take the time in their heads to translate back to analog
Dashboard analog clock- they gave me on in my 2025 car. Now I know what I’m doing
But they took away my dial speedometer. What an insane idea.
