…as after rise of Google we don’t remember URLs and with ubiquity of mobile phones we forgot numbers.
Interesting is how fast the reshaping process is.
Are you making the argument that surrendering general thinking, problem solving, research, and creativity is nothing more to be concerned about than no longer memorizing URLs and phone numbers?

Will this have any evolutionary impact on the human brain?
