Dr. Putt Patthananudhaporn (MIT Media Lab) argues that everyday AI in phones poses a more immediate threat than sci-fi AGI scenarios: cognitive offloading, mental health impacts, and erosion of autonomous human decision-making. His Cyborg Psychology group reframes the challenge from "making AI smarter" to "Intelligence Augmentation"—designing AI to amplify human capabilities rather than diminish them. Key projects include Future Self (letting users consult AI-generated versions of themselves), shown to reduce anxiety and extend long-term thinking in 190+ countries.
