Q: Is AI Making Us Dumb?

A: No.

From the substack:

We can’t fully blame AI. After all, it’s only been with us for the last four years. This decline began with the internet and got worse with smartphones.

"We can’t fully blame X" Is a different proposition from "X is not causing Y".

The first only says that several things cause Y, it does not exclude X from being not one of them. Or even from being the latest and worst one. It's a qualified yes, not a no.
