This is a special audio edition of my recent Substack conversation with neuroscientist and writer Tim Requarth. The full post—including the video and more detailed show notes—is available on my Substack.
Neuroscientist, writer, and NYU faculty member Tim Requarth joins me to talk about what "AI dependency" really means. Some behavioral addiction researchers are proposing that "ChatGPT addiction" qualifies as a bonafide mental disorder, while others strongly object! We explore how tools like ChatGPT affect our thinking and attention, and whether AI can actually cause "brain damage"--as recent headlines have claimed. We discuss what happens when people lose trust in their own thinking, why productive struggle matters, and why AI can’t challenge your assumptions the way a real friend would.
