We are researching how tools like ChatGPT and Gemini influence long-term information retention, conceptual recall, and independent problem-solving across diverse university disciplines.
A quick look at the central questions behind this study by Kabir.
When we know answers are instantly available via AI, our brains tend to offload remembering technical details and syntax, trusting the tool to recall it later.
