We are delegating more and more thinking to artificial intelligence. AI Detox is needed. We tend to take the path of least resistance, but that makes us weak in the long run.
There’s a special feeling when you do something on your own. Ask yourself: what would I be able to do if AI was globally shut down?
It’s an extreme assumption, yes. But it’s a good exercise to start reflecting on the real level of our skills. We need to be responsible AI users. We must stop renting critical knowledge and start internalizing and formulating it ourselves.
Otherwise, future generations will learn diluted knowledge or take everything for granted. And when curiosity dies, so does the human spark.

I’m not saying reduce your AI usage, but allow yourself to see your most vulnerable side and say: I’ll learn this deeply, from first principles, to produce a better output.
