Generative AI impacts human psychology and literacy

Recent analyses explore the psychological and social implications of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI). One perspective examines the potential for large language models (LLMs) to serve as cognitive-regulating tools, specifically in managing the coexistence of mindfulness and mindlessness within the human mind.

Other discussions focus on the impact of AI hype and personalization features on human perception. The combination of exaggerated narratives and personalized user experiences may encourage uncritical trust and awe toward GenAI, potentially hindering the development of necessary AI literacy and reflective engagement with these technologies.
