Is it true that regular use of AI tutors reduces students' critical thinking skills?
Partly. Evidence on this claim is partial and mixed: a position paper and a qualitative study raise concerns that unchecked AI use may harm critical thinking, while one survey-style paper says AI tools support learning when used properly. None of the retrieved items measures a change in students' critical thinking skills from regular AI tutor use.
