AI's Role: Collaboration Over Replacement
A study found that using AI too much can make our brains lazy.
Instead of replacing us, AI should help us work better.
Companies should teach their employees how to work with AI and manage it well.
This way, AI can help us do our jobs better without taking them away from us.
