Thats just dumb. A computer is only as smart as the person using it. They are a tool that does what you program it to do. If you are stupid, you will get stupid results. They are there to speed things up so we can get more done in less time. Thats what the first computers were for, speed things up such as missle trajectories in war. Are we dumber because we didn't break out the slide rule and figure out where to place the bomb?
And you have to wonder, when the caveman made the first wheel, did his buddies look at him and say, " Ugh, you use that stone circle, you get stupid."
I think Tyco had that problem when they made a competing "lego" style product. I remember a lot of their stuff was loose fitting, sometimes to the point that they wouldn't stay together.

Something like that video for "Where's Your Head at" by BasementJaxx?
