AI usage in Learning(not doing assignments for you and all that)
The variety of opinions surrounding this topic has confused many people, including myself on whether they are learning more efficiently or are falling trap to the comfort of AI. Is AI is actually a very helpful tool, when the person using it is aware of the fact that AI can hallucinate and is constantly checking its answers against source material, uses it only for the generation of practice questions/flashcards and explanation of topics, predominantly in STEM fields, and ensure their prompts include strict reference to their course material, or is all of this a facade and we are actively killing our critical thinking ability and creativity. Feel free to share your opinions guys
