AI dependence linked to sharp decline in cognitive performance, new studies confirm

MIT, Oxford and UC Berkeley researchers found that just 10 minutes of AI assistance significantly impairs focus and persistence on difficult tasks.

Study of 1,222 participants showed those relying on AI quickly abandoned problems when the tool was removed.

AI users showed weaker neural activity compared to those who thought independently, according to separate MIT Media Lab research.

Experts warn AI use causes "cognitive atrophy" and may create a generation dependent on algorithmic thinking.

Researchers urge developing foundational critical thinking skills before introducing AI tools in education....<<<Read More>>>...
