  "account": "The rise of generative artificial intelligence is transforming the way people read and access information. According to a survey by the Korean Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the number of adults who read at least one book a year has dropped to a record low of 28.8%. The use of AI tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude can quickly process vast amounts of text, making it easier for people to get answers without actually reading books. This trend has sparked concerns about the impact on literacy and critical thinking skills. Several books have been published recently, including \"사고 외주\" and \"읽지 않는 사람들\", exploring the implications of AI on human cognition and the importance of literacy in the digital age.",
