AI isn't going to obviate the need to actually know things about the world - if anything it's going to make the skill scarcer and more valuable Here's an example. I think it's a very useful thing, if you are going to concern yourself with global affairs, to have a really strong map of the world in your head. You should have a good sense of where almost all countries the world are, how big they are, which countries they are next to. Why? Because the entirety of human history has played out on that map of the world. It makes a great many things easier to read, easier to quickly understand, when you don't have to consult an Atlas. It might seem like a small thing - but the easier it is to read history, the more you will *like* reading history, and the better grasp of history you will develop, which will improve your judgment and wisdom. It's all connected.
