Has the Computer made People Stupid?

People have become stupid, in politics, and Computers might be one reason for this. 

One reason is the Internet, which has made a global economy possible. This is a good thing for business, but not so good for people, as individuals. Who have been turned into Consumers, with little power of thought. They have become Stupid. 

To put this another way: People, with their limited brainpower, are forced to compete with Computers, with their powerful Artificial Intelligence (AI). 

This has become worse with the advent of the Computer Cloud, which has made Computer services cheaper than ever. 

This would not be a problem if people understood this. But usually, they do not, and do not want to. The Global Economy has given them a lot, and they don't want that taken away. 

This reasoning is unconscious but powerful.
