In an age when AI is being used by everyone from scientists modeling new molecules to tweens doing their homework, it's not hard to imagine it is changing how we think. In this talk we explore how thought might be being affected not just by AI, but from all of our rapidly accumulating technology. Pat Scannell, a technologist who has been studying how technology affects cognition, makes the case it is not just affected, but is being disrupted, and that this is one of the most important issues facing humanity, biosecurity, and national defense.
