Opinion: Forget ChatGPT! It's humans acting like machines

Hindustan Times  

Last month, my husband lost his job and I got to witness firsthand the distinctive choreography of large-scale corporate layoffs. He would be placed on gardening leave for a month — the term conjured images of familial bliss planting tulip bulbs on the balcony — and, contingent on signing a termination agreement, there would be severance pay calculated in accordance with years of service. Absent from the conversation however is a concurrent trend that is already playing out: what happens when humans begin acting more like machines? The very few individuals who display vastly superior processing are often pathologized, either as savants with autism, or in especially rare cases, as experiencing hyperthymesia — the tendency to remember their lives in extraordinary detail. But with every LinkedIn post, I see from an individual confessing to being "impacted by the recent layoffs at " I am reminded that we are already seeing the consequences of humans acting like machines.
