It's not as if, and here again, we have this issue of we hold the humans, we tend to hold humans to a higher account

Is it sometimes very helpful for people?
Do people also tend to use these tools, be a bit more savvy than we're giving them credit for?
Because we've heard these debates before.
There's echoes with sort of the Dr. Google stuff.
where health professionals came in and sort of said, doctors, patients won't know how to use Google.
Studies show that people are pretty savvy about it, even so-called digital immigrants.
But there's also then the issue, I do think that they are probably causing harm to some people.

There's much more to think about here.

Empathy tends to be biased.
