Hacker News debate: Does AI increase or decrease workplace mental load?

Mellosty asks HN about AI-era mental overload

1 Oct 30 5:17 AM · 13d ago · 1 article · 1 post · 2 sources · development 1 of 3

A user posted to Ask HN describing feeling "considerably more tired than before" despite AI's productivity gains, citing the need to track parallel work, read enormous amounts of generated text, and manage constant decisions and context-switching. The post asked for tips on using AI without increasing mental overload while staying relevant to avoid job loss.

“Although AI lets us do much more, I feel considerably more tired than before. We need to keep track of many things happening in parallel and read enormous amounts of generated text.”
