Publisher's Synopsis
Is AI Making Us Smarter or More Dependent?
We are experiencing an unprecedented revolution: generative artificial intelligence is now omnipresent. It can write, translate, code, or even compose music, promising to free us from the most tedious tasks. But behind this technological advancement lies an insidious threat: cognitive erosion.
Are we losing our ability to think, create, and remember?
What is the impact on adults, developing children, and even individuals with high intellectual potential?
Is AI making us collectively more passive and easier to manipulate?
This book offers an in-depth and scientific analysis of the massive reliance on generative AI. It explores how these tools are reshaping our essential cognitive functions:
- Reduction in intellectual effort and increased dependence on automated responses.
- Weakening of memory and externalization of knowledge.
- Decrease in concentration abilities and information overload.
- Standardization of writing styles and impoverishment of language.
- Decline in critical thinking when faced with biased results.
- Loss of originality and gradual disappearance of innovation.
An essential book to understand the real challenges of the AI era.
An Invisible Threat: Cognitive Manipulation Through AI
Beyond individual impact, this book explores geopolitical strategies and the risks of cognitive warfare linked to AI models. Each technological bloc (United States, Europe, China, Japan) develops its own AI with specific training, deeply influencing users according to an implicit ideology.
Are we condemned to adopt a worldview shaped by algorithms?
Can AI be used as a tool to shape ideologically compatible societies?
What restrictions are being imposed by regulations such as the European AI Act?
A fascinating investigation into the future of free will in the digital age.
