AI is already part f ur daily lives. Hwever, dependence n it can cause great harm t ur ability t think critically. Accrding t researchers frm Micrsft and Carnegie Melln University, t much reliance n these tls can cause great harm t critical thinking, as well as negatively affect the brain’s ability t cmbine different ideas, styles, r systems int a single idea r system. The study defined the structure f thught as a pyramid. In this way, knwledge is at the tp, fllwed by understanding ideas, practice, cmparing ideas and, finally, synthesizing (合成) them.
Based n surveys f 319 s-called “knwledge wrkers”, wh can generally be categrized as “white-cllar jbs”, the study fund that while generative AI can imprve efficiency, it can hld back critical engagement with wrk. In this way, it ptentially ends up leading t increasing dependence n the tl in the lng term, in additin t a decrease in the ability t independently slve prblems.
The impact f this prblem is being seen mainly in the business sectr. Accrding t a reprt published by the Wrld Ecnmic Frum, there was a decrease f arund 41% in the wrkfrce. Big tech CEOs have admitted that they are distributing much f their wrk t AI, accrding t CNET. This migratin f functins t AI has led t a wave f layffs and fewer jb penings.
A series f executive (执行的) rders related t AI safety issued by frmer US President Je Biden have been revked by President Dnald Trump, reducing limitatins n big tech. In this regard, last week, Ggle lifted a ban n the use f AI in the develpment f weapns and surveillance (监视) tls.
Anther very cmmn use by wrkers is t use AI t crrect and review their wrk already dne. Althugh this actin requires sme critical thinking, researchers warn that lng-term use can destry the ability t synthesize.
32. Which part f the thught pyramid is mst affected by AI?
A. Practising.B. Cmparing.C. Understanding.D. Synthesizing.
33. Why is wrkfrce decrease in business mentined?
A. T shw AI damages ecnmy.B. T indicate AI-related jb lss.
C. T advise wrkers t raise efficiency.D. T prve AI has mre critical thinking.
34. What des the underlined wrd “revked” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Analyzed.B. Cancelled.C. Cnsidered.D. Strengthened.
35. What can be inferred frm Ggle lifting the AI use ban?
A. AI safety is n lnger a cncern.B. Ggle leads in AI military fields.
C. Peple grw mre inclusive f AI.D. The previus ban ignres the reality.

AI is already part f ur daily lives. Hwever, dependence n it can cause great harm t ur ability t think critically. Accrding t researchers frm Micrsft and Carnegie Melln University, t much reliance n these tls can cause great harm t critical thinking, as well as negatively affect the brain’s ability t cmbine different ideas, styles, r systems int a single idea r system. The study defined the structure f thught as a pyramid. In this way, knwledge is at the tp, fllwed by understanding ideas, practice, cmparing ideas and, finally, synthesizing (合成) them.
Based n surveys f 319 s-called “knwledge wrkers”, wh can generally be categrized as “white-cllar jbs”, the study fund that while generative AI can imprve efficiency, it can hld back critical engagement with wrk. In this way, it ptentially ends up leading t increasing dependence n the tl in the lng term, in additin t a decrease in the ability t independently slve prblems.
