đ€ Is AI making us stupid?
The answer from new research is far more complicated than a simple yes or no.
Scientists say AI does not automatically make people less intelligent, but relying on it to do the thinking for us could weaken specific skills that depend on practice.
The key difference may be how we use AI. If we ask it to solve every problem, write everything and summarize everything, we may lose valuable opportunities to practice and learn. But when AI acts as a tutor, collaborator or source of feedback, it may actually help us learn.
The bigger question is not whether AI will make humans "stupid." It's which skills we will continue to practiceâand which ones we will hand over to machines.
As AI becomes part of everyday life, researchers say understanding that difference could become increasingly important.
