It’s really not going to bump up terribles to mediocres. It’s only going to mask the terribles and make it harder to assess intelligence and talent. Underlying human intelligence is not going to get a boost from AI. Intelligence is mostly innate. I would even argue that AI will make average humans marginally dumber for the most part.
Yeah, also, isn't it already proven that offloading thinking onto chat bots causes some kind of irreversible brain damage/dementia? (also BTW "mediocre" is still not "acceptable" despite Slophauses trying to convince people otherwise)
