You are on point my friend that we live in such an incredible time. As much as there are many advantages to accessing information and knowledge, I feel that some people have never relatively lazy in doing background research since all they ever wanted is ready available on the internet.
Our smarter world nonetheless is appreciable as we live in such comfort tham our fathers but to say the least, these same advancement have made us distanced ourselves in so many ways.
Yes Technically we are getting lazy, with in-depth search of knowledge and overdependence on technology,
I hope we can balance things up
I don't think we are ready to balance things up.
Today, AI has made our laziness worst. It will only get worst especially for those of us from this part of the world where we depend on other people research output to live.
I have to agree, AI is getting some people more complacent and dull but we just hope we wake up to realise this,
Imagine what will Happen when the Super AI gets it's full form.
I just Hope we can get things balanced honestly.
