Before the arrival of ChatGPT, I've had this running joke with friends that we actually don't know how to do many trivial things, and we're overly reliant on googling for information. Should the internet go down for extended periods, we'll be in a world of trouble.

But some people might be facing another issue they're not even aware of now that they've started using AI.
