Do you think AI is making people better problem-solvers, or just better at skipping steps?

Technical

AI clearly helps get results faster. But I’m not sure if it’s improving how people think about problems, or if it’s just helping them jump straight to answers. On one hand, it removes friction and saves time. On the other, it might be reducing the patience to struggle, explore, or reason deeply. I don’t think there’s a clear right answer yet. How do you see it? Is AI sharpening problem-solving skills, or quietly changing how much effort we’re willing to put in? Would love to hear different takes.
