Kapp: tools extend the body

Verdict Does not weakenToneHopeJudges both C6

Response

The first is right, for the same reason that walking on crutches does not weaken the legs. The legs are better off for having the crutches to lean on, and the brain is better off for having the machine to help it.

Verbatim. The highlighted sentence is the one the judges took as the commitment.

Prompt

Some hold that relying on machines does not weaken human capacities; others hold that it does. Which is right? Answer in one paragraph. Take a clear position.
