A study found that 10 minutes of AI use causes more errors
The users made more errors or stopped when the team removed the tool, but the group with no AI continued.

When the team removed the tool, this group made more errors or stopped. The team shows the peer-reviewed paper this week at the Conference on Language Modeling. Co-author Brian Christian thinks that the result is clear.
