The Generative AI Learning Penalty: Evidence from Chinese Secondary Education

For surprise of no one. I mean, before AI we have the problem with stored knowledge. If I am not wrong, psychologists discovered that students were using websites as "storing devices", students werer not willing to memorize data that could be find easily on the internet. I think that it was not bad per se, since specialized knowledge is increasing the human brain can not store all the info related to a topic.

However, the AI is solving problems that are required to be solved by students in order to learn/develope an ability. I think that we are abusing the use of this new tecnological tools, the machines are the ones learning/thinking/solving while we seek comfortability, not putting effort into solving problems.

We are becoming unskilled enough to be exploited with no option.
