How to Borrow 30 IQ Points From AI | Lucas Miller | 4K

You've been told AI makes you smarter. The research says it depends entirely on how you use it. Lucas Miller is a cognitive scientist, author, and professor at UC Berkeley whose research on AI and human performance has been featured in Wired and the Wall Street Journal. What he found challenges everything we assume about productivity, intelligence, and the future of thinking. In this Genius Talk, Lucas breaks down why AI is the greatest thinking shortcut ever created, and why that's exactly what makes it dangerous. Every major technological revolution gave us new powers and quietly stripped away essential human skills. The industrial revolution took our strength. The internet took our memory. Social media destroyed our attention spans. And AI, if we let it, will take our ability to think altogether. But this hasn't happened yet. We have a choice. Lucas reveals the 3 mistakes most people are already making with AI — offloading too early, chasing shallow answers, and blindly auto-accepting outputs — and his research-backed TRV method for staying in the driver's seat. If you use AI right, it's like borrowing 30 IQ points. If you don't, it becomes an Uber for your brain.
