AI SAYS YES –
July 23, 2024 – Thanks to the speed and efficiency of the internet, centuries of knowledge can now be summoned with a simple click of a button – but how the brain acquires information is just as important, and you could be increasing your risk of dementia by taking shortcuts, a leading academic has warned.
In his new book, iMind: Artificial and Real Intelligence, Professor Mohamed I. Elmasry says the focus has shifted too far away from RI (natural, or real) intelligence in favour of AI (machine, or artificial) intelligence.
Prof Elmasry, an expert in microchip design and AI, argues that current or even planned AI cannot match the capabilities of the human brain-mind for speed, accuracy, storage capacity and other functions.
People have come to rely on AI smartphone apps instead of using their real intelligence, and this has come at a devastating cost, the prof claims, adding: “A healthy memory goes hand-in-hand with real intelligence. Our memory simply can’t reach its full potential without RI.”
