The death of deep thinking: What generative AI is doing to your future team
- Researchers led by Sundas Azeem surveyed 326 Pakistani business students in 2024 to study their engagement with generative AI tools in academics.
- They investigated how personality traits like conscientiousness influence AI tool use, noting that prior studies focused mainly on ethical debates around AI in education.
- The study found that conscientious students used generative AI less and that higher AI use correlated with lower self-efficacy and potential negative learning outcomes.
- Azeem stated the findings “did not support the idea that AI tools help academically,” highlighting concerns about students' reliance undermining critical thinking.
- The findings suggest a need for responsible AI integration in education through policy, training, and curriculum reform to support authentic learning and preserve academic integrity.

Situating governance and regulatory concerns for generative artificial intelligence and large language models in medical education
Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) and large language models represent gains in educational efficiency and personalisation of learning. These are balanced against the considerations of the learning process, authentic assessment, and academic integrity. A pedagogical approach helps situate these concerns, and informs various types of governance and regulatory approaches. In this review we identify current and emerging issues regarding Gen…
Of Pain and Pedagogy—What We Sacrifice When We Learn with AI — Minding The Campus
While listening to an online debate about the future of artificial intelligence (AI), I considered writing this essay and a parallel one that I had asked AI to write. The debate delved into the differences of human versus machine language “intelligence,” computational wizardry versus human emotion, and regulation of the AI industry, whether driven by profit and market […] The post Of Pain and Pedagogy—What We Sacrifice When We Learn with AI appe…
Education, which is a fundamental pillar for the reproduction, assimilation and transformation of social life, is now facing a decisive moment in Costa Rica.This is how I raise it and warn of the urgency of rethinking the national education system in a global context marked by the eruption of artificial intelligence (IA) and the accelerated transformation of learning models.From standardization to personalizationHistorically, education went from…
Something’s Lost, but Something’s Gained
This is not the first time that emerging technology has impacted teaching modes and methods. In reflecting on my feelings about the advent of artificial intelligence in our lives, I must report they are mixed. I have the strong sense of the inevitability that this technology will meet and exceed its hype to alter the course of humanity, generally for the better. However, at the same time there is a measure of trepidation in my awe of the potenti…
GenAI in education: between promise and precaution
