Thinking Will Become a Hobby, Essay Argues

Original: Thinking will become a hobby

A new essay by Diomidis Spinellis argues that as artificial intelligence takes over routine cognitive work, deliberate human thinking will shift from a daily necessity to an optional leisure pursuit, much like gardening or amateur astronomy. The piece is drawing attention among technologists, with readers debating whether outsourcing thought to machines is a loss of essential skill or a natural next step in automation.

Why now: Rapid advances in AI are prompting renewed debate about what human cognition will be for in an automated world.
