Habituation

/həˌbɪtʃuˈeɪʃən/noun
ELI5 mode

Habituation is the process by which an organism becomes accustomed to a repeated stimulus, leading to a diminished response over time. This fundamental form of learning helps us tune out background distractions in everyday life, but in modern contexts like digital interfaces, it can also mean users quickly adapt to new features, sometimes overlooking important updates.
