Your Kids Trust AI Completely. That Should Terrify You. Ep 198

Episode Description from the Publisher

Is AI actually making us smarter, or is it quietly making us dumber? That's the question I couldn't shake this week. We've handed our kids machines that answer every question instantly, and we call them smart for knowing how to use them. But if a computer remembers, calculates, writes, and thinks for you, what happens to your own mind? Are we outsourcing the very struggle God designed to grow wisdom in us? Here's the danger: AI doesn't just get things wrong. It gets them spectacularly wrong while sounding absolutely certain. And if you don't know the truth for yourself, you'll never catch it. In this episode I make the case that critical thinking just became a survival skill, then James joins me to react to some clips you won't want to miss, ending with one of the most powerful testimonies of a changed life I've ever heard. Test everything. Hold fast to what is good. And don't rely on a machine to do your thinking for you.
