Test subjects who worked with AI displayed more weakly connected neural patterns and reported feeling less ownership of their texts. In addition, they found it harder to remember content they had written themselves. Even after switching back to writing without AI, the reduced neural activity persisted, which points to lasting effects. Overall, the study suggests that while AI can increase efficiency, it may also weaken memory, creativity, and self-reflection.    <\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][\/et_pb_accordion][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey, I\u2019m sitting on the train to Cologne right now and would like to share a few thoughts with you&#8230; I\u2019m sitting here with my laptop open in front of me.
