    #142: Why is AI Making Us Dumber?

    We’re facing a crisis worse than an economic downturn, and most people are still asleep.


    This isn’t just a tech problem.


    AI misinformation isn’t a glitch. It’s actively degrading how we think and make decisions.


    While we worry about the stock market, global leaders are watching something else entirely.


    The collapse of human intelligence.


    It’s time to wake up and see how day to day AI is changing who we are.
