Going to have generations of people unable to think analytically or creatively, and just as bad, entering fields that require a real detailed knowledge of the subject and they don't. Going to see a lot of fuck ups in engineering, medicine, etc because of people faking it.
Why do you need to learn reams of facts when you can get an answer in the fraction of a second ? Seems pointless anyway.
I am having flashbacks to the scene in Idiocracy where the doctor is talking about his wife.
She's a pilot now.
..or will be in 480 years.
Lmao. I'm guessing you don't work in any of those fields. Got some bad news for ya bud. It's been that way for decades. Probably centuries.
Don't tell them it applies pretty damn perfectly to journalism and online commentators that both heavily shape their worldview even indirectly (because even if you don't believe it your homies will and you get peer pressured) because they'll go into a loop.
