The GDPR amendments are the worst thing the Commission has come up with in the last 10 years, even worse than ChatControl. If this is how they plan to (t)roll this mandate, I'd rather the Commission not do anything at all on digital.

while i appreciate @404media.co explaining this, if you ever find yourself explaining to someone why smart glasses recording people is different from a smartphone, i think you have to consider that they're playing with you, and you're playing back in turn.

So, we wind up with “metacognitive laziness”, which is a nerd term for all of us slowly turning into the fat spaceship farers in Wall-E. Or the Pakleds from Star Trek.

I’d add in the increasing research showing negative impacts of cognitive off-loading to GenAI. While Plato cited Thalmus bemoaning the advent of writing, and I struggle to remember any phone number since I got my first mobile - both off loading memory, GenAI allows the offloading of a lot more.
