I work in the education space and my biggest worry is the next generation losing the ability to critically think.

Just like how Gen X is much better at mental math than Millennials because the invention of pocket calculators / calculators on phones made math trivial; I think AI is going to trivialize critical thinking. We (as a Millennial) still had to hunt for a correct answer to our problems, which forced us to question possible answers we found and used our critical thinking skills to determine if it was a valid answer or not. With AI though, you type in your question and it'll spit out an answer. For easy questions - it's great. But for anything a little more nuanced, it struggles still. So if we don't develop our critical thinking skills on easy questions, I wonder how we'll do on the harder questions
