Definitely using it for the first draft of things tends to lead to over-reliance.
I think that is great advice, by the way.
The number of executives who are making so much money, they come to me and they ask about their kids and they're worried about their high school kid just using Chachupati or Claude or whatever to just cheat and write their essay.
There was a study out of MIT done that basically if you had AI write your essay, even if you then wrote your own essay, the originality, the creativity, the brain activity that second time around, even though you are only using your own brain and fingers, was worse.
If those two were switched, if you worked on your own, you're in your own world and saying, ooh, this is the perfect essay, and then you wrote with AI, it was completely flopped.
Brain activity went up, creativity went up, and it was even better than not using AI at all.
Wow.
Yeah.
Over-reliance is one of the biggest fears.
If I'm talking to anyone under 30, right, people who maybe haven't yet developed their really deep expertise in a field like someone who has worked for 10, 20, 30 years in a field.

It's like, here's our business and here's how it works.
