A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Reading comprehension and use of language is a vital skill to function as an adult in society, and to acquire that you need to read, a lot.

I have yet to see evidence of this being the case.

You haven't been looking very hard I gather. There are numerous studies done on the benefits of reading, you could use your preferred search engine to read a few of them perhaps.
