I’d be interested to see how they isolated use of AI from, well, everything else that’s happened in the last three years.

We are more stressed, burned out, socially isolated, broke, and pessimistic than ever.

The findings do make sense I think, if AI is replacing interpersonal collaboration and already dwindling social contact within that larger context, combined with the knowledge that (in my case, anyway) the very tool you’re using also poses a threat to your own financial future.
