A recent study has revealed that generative artificial intelligence (AI) is nearly five times less accurate than humans when summarizing scientific research. The research highlights a strong bias in many widely used large language models (LLMs) toward overgeneralizing scientific conclusions, which poses a risk of large-scale misrepresentation of research findings. Experts warn that AI tools may be contributing to a decline in the quality of published research. Additional concerns have been raised about AI's broader cognitive impact, with studies suggesting that reliance on AI could lead to diminished critical thinking skills and memory retention, effectively weakening human intellectual capacity.
