No one I know irl will get this reference, but I cut up a whole chicken into pieces today and felt like them the whole time

An image of Mr and Mrs Cutter from the video game, Okami. In the style of traditional Japanese inkwork, and elderly man and woman wield kitchen knives and look villainous

Microsoft researchers partner with Carnegie - study indicates high use of AI correlates with reduced critical thinking

Conclusion (screenshotted from the published article)

This is the section highlighted by a reader, transcribed: GenAI (...) can inhibit critical engagement with work and can potentially lead to long-term overreliance on the tool and diminished skill for independent problem-solving. Higher confidence in GenAI's ability to perform a task is related to less critical thinking effort.

This is the complete conclusion: We surveyed 319 knowledge workers who use GenAI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Copilot) at work at least once per week, to model how they enact critical thinking when using GenAI tools, and how GenAI
affects their perceived effort of thinking critically. Analysing 936 real-world GenAI tool use examples our participants shared, we find that knowledge workers engage in critical thinking primarily to ensure the quality of their work, e.g. by verifying outputs against external sources. Moreover, while GenAI can improve worker effi-
ciency, it can inhibit critical engagement with work and can potentially lead to long-term overreliance on the tool and diminished skill for independent problem-solving. Higher confidence in GenAI's ability to perform a task is related to less critical thinking effort.
When using GenAI tools, the effort invested in critical thinking shifts from information gathering to information verification; from problem-solving to AI response integration; and from task execution to task stewardship. Knowledge workers face new challenges in critical thinking as they incorporate GenAI into their knowledge workflows. To that end, our work suggests that GenAI tools need to be designed to support knowledge workers' critical thinking by addressing their awareness, motivation, and ability barriers.
