Quick answer (middle of the night):
Increases pattern recognition. Limits contemplation. Harms attention.
Not clear YET this is bad IF information is true.
Probably is bad if informaiton is false or open to bias selection and interpretation.
Might require education about human differences to correcly interpret the patterns rather than moralize (reductive) them from instincts.
IOW I’m not sure that ‘scanning’ isn’t an evolutionary advancement for processing more information by reliance on less faulty pattern recognition than faulty reason.
I am sure that we are more fulnerable to propaganda suggestion and confusion this way.
So the problem is ‘truth ai’ to limit it.
