AIhub Coffee Corner: does AI change the way we think?

AIhub Coffee Corner: does AI change the way we think? This month we ask whether AI tools are changing the way we think. Joining the conversation this time are: Joydeep Biswas (The University of Texas at Austin), Sanmay Das (Virginia Tech), Rina Dechter (University of California, Irvine), Sabine Hauert (University of Bristol), Michael Littman (Brown University), and Marija Slavkovik (University of Bergen). There's just so much to discuss there. I don't know how to start. First of all, it is definitely changing how we write code, develop code, think about correctness, and work on projects. Once upon a time, implementation used to be bottlenecked by writing the code. We are no longer bottlenecked by writing the code, we are bottlenecked in testing and understanding for correctness. As a researcher, there's a lot of what I would call throwaway tools.
