It’s dangerous in general, for young people.

The book "Better Grades Using AI" emphasizes that AI should augment your study efforts, not replace them. He emphasizes the ethical use of AI to help students.

STEM requires deep understanding. Don’t use AI, especially if you are a science or math major who intends to use some form of STEM in your professional life!

I (MIT SB Biology; Harvard PhD molecular biology) should know!

Are prof’s going to allow engineering students to reference AI during exams now? Doubt it. Calculus trig substitutions, proofs, matrices etc...you either know em or you’re washing out. And that’s just calculus.

Even worse in the humanities.

We’re now producing illiterate or semi-literate college graduates.

Here’s a great article assessing leading edge AI by someone who’s deeply immersed in it, how it’s effected his own work and what the AI future looks like and how to best prepare to deal with it.

A bit long, but well worth the time to read it.
