Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is deeper in the den with dangerous day. Well,
you know, chat GPT can be a slippery slope. You
can go from not trusting it to picking restaurants for
date night to allowing it to plan your entire wedding,
your honeymoon. At that point you might be addicted. According
to a new survey, seventy three percent of people who
use AI chatpots say they're dependent on AI. Twenty five

(00:21):
percent said they now even struggle just writing an email
without it. Forty nine percent of people said writing professional
documents is harder without AI, and forty six percent find
it more difficult to fact check or valuate information. Critically,
twenty one percent said they simply are making their own
decisions and that chat GPT is making it harder to
make your own decisions. Younger people have become more addicted.

(00:44):
Seventy eight percent of Gen zs and seventy five percent
millennials say they feel dependent on AI, compared to sixty
seven percent of Gen X and just fifty nine percent

bumper bowling, stuffed animals, coloring books. I would disagree with
that if you get to the intricate ones. They're good
for dexterity and for your mind for older folks as well.
Legos also making the list, dressing up in costume, Harry Potter,
Disney movies, and trading cards. On the other end of
the list, a few kid things that are really good
for adults as well. Ice cream top the list, followed

(01:50):
by arts and crafts, board games, recreational sports, saying you
have a best friend, and ketchup on hot dogs. Seventy
eight percent of the people polled said they missed being
a kid at least a little. One in five say
they miss it a lot. I don't really miss being
a kid, because, as Jimmy Buffett says, I'm growing older,
but not up. At least that's what my thirteen year
old sense of humor would indicate. Tune it again for
