Ha. Thread about the atrophy of the brain when using AI, but the post is. of course. written with AI.
BREAKING: MIT just completed the first brain scan study of ChatGPT users & the results are terrifying. Turns out, AI isn't making us more productive. It's making us cognitively bankrupt. Here's what 4 months of data revealed:. (hint: we've been measuring productivity all wrong)

Apart from any comments or replies to this thread, this is my last post on Twitter. And I'm not someone who would ever wish ill on anyone, so I'll just say that I am not a fan of Mr Musk, and have not been for a long time. Slan.

And it's so sad really. I know I am one of the last to do this but I was really hanging on because it did mean a lot to me to be able to have conversations about what was ever on my mind and have people give me interesting takes and correct me when I was being a dick. Anyway. .

And it worked! We helped a bunch of people with the problems that just internet or just friends couldn't possibly solve. All of that is gone now. When I tweet something I get 0 responses from anyone, I don't even know if anyone's reading this, and all I see on here is shite. .

It was so incredible to me that someone would do this for a stranger they had only a couple of tweets with. So for the next few Sunday nights I threw out a tweet asking if anybody needed any help and I would try and connect them.

I threw out a Hail Mary on Twitter and someone happened to be traveling from DERRY to Dublin the next day in a van and agreed to pick it up at no cost.

I remember that I was on donedeal trying to buy an office table and came across this amazing panelled 2mx1.5 art deco colossus. I thought I would write a novel on it. The problem was that the seller needed to get rid of it in 24 hours or it was going to the dump. .

Man, I used to love Twitter. I would get so much back from the community on here. And that word is thrown around a lot by a so many different products and organisations but it really was a community. Crazy story. 🧵.
