Cognitive friction

 Got it — here’s a bullet-point gist + tagline version, stripped down and sharp:


Gist


  • AI increases performance, speed, and correctness — a narrow form of intelligence
  • Wisdom comes from struggle, self-friction, and confronting one’s own limits
  • AI removes cognitive friction by skipping effort, confusion, and failure
  • This produces answers without self-understanding
  • Insight generated externally does not transform the thinker
  • Outsourcing thinking weakens inner dialogue and self-reflection
  • Result: more capability, less self-knowledge



Tagline

AI makes you smarter at solving problems — and worse at knowing yourself.


If you want it even punchier (tweet-length, slide headline, or manifesto one-liner), say the format.
