I think that’s a fair argument. Infinite scrolling still trains our brain based on the task we are giving it. If it’s entertainment then we are training ourselves to go forever. If it’s orgasm, then we are training our brain to constantly be stimulated by infinitely changing stimuli, which no human can compete with sexually.

And no, there isn’t enough data yet, but there also isn’t enough data around smoking weed and long term effects, especially around pregnancy, but people understand it’s probably not safe. Use at your own risk. I’m just saying that it very likely has some detrimental effect on our brains, but can’t prove how much.
