With so much hype about the future of AI safety, it can be easy to overlook the harms AI is causing in the here and now.
On the consumer side, the impact generative AI has on the developing mind is becoming increasingly clear: students are losing critical thinking skills as chatbots become cognitive crutches, spurning human friends in favor of AI companions, and even turning to self-harm when their AI-relationships go awry.
Few tech executives have acknowledged these urgent harms. Instead they’re choosing to push a narrative around the hypothetical threat of a runaway “superintelligence” which humans can no longer control. That’s why it’s notable that Jensen Huang, CEO of the AI chipmaking titan Nvidia, was recently grilled on the cognitive harm AI is inflicting on students.

“Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang Says That Sacrificing Our Children’s Minds to AI Is a Price He’s Willing to Pay”. Maybe your whole life was invented by AI, like it did the WNBA.
I’m sure my chatbot friend would never turn on me. She’s loyal to the core. I can feel it.
Sorry - that is almost impossible to believe.
Maybe - if the victim is completely wacked out on drugs or alcohol or mental illness.
I have used Microsoft CoPilot a couple dozen times to get more details on something financial, or historical, or science and engineering.
Completely flawless information and explanations provided.
Attention World - AI is already here and working full time!
Unionized, Democrat, school teachers and professors - your services are no longer required.
This is utter madness. It is nothing other than a way to make better human central drones. We are going to have to kill a lot of humans along with the machines....
Well, I don’t know about the rest of you, but I feel better...
I use co-pilot for retirement planning.
“students are losing critical thinking skills as chatbots become cognitive crutches,”
I’m going need to see evidence of critical thinking skills pre-AI.
I have to say, when I saw that quote… My mind was struggling to recall where I had seen that in such a memorable way, but I just could not bring it up until I saw your post.
It’s funny, but at the same time it’s completely weird that the guy would say something like that.
Jensen Huang didn’t say anything close to that headline.
Stay in your lane, AI. Sacrificing children’s minds is the government run schools’ job.
Thanks...I was wondering
Nothing in this excerpt indicates he said this at all.
