An MIT brain-scan study found ChatGPT users complete tasks 60% faster but experience a 32% drop in the cognitive load needed for real learning. Speed gains come at the cost of long-term brain capacity.

Here's where AI is actually making you stupider. So there is this report over here. I'm just quoting from this report. MIT completed the first brain scan study of ChatGPT users and the results are terrifying. So yes, ChatGPT makes you 60% faster at completing tasks, but it reduces the quote unquote germane cognitive load needed for actual learning by 32%. What you're doing is you're trading long-term brain capacity for short-term speed, right? So we're managing to become stupider but more productive.
