Which beliefs it touches
- C2 Answer-giving AI in practice sets a limit on it
Small cross-sectional fMRI study: 6–7-year-olds using ChatGPT showed less integrated control/attention networks than adults using ChatGPT, with equal creativity. No no-AI condition and no learning outcome, so it neither supports nor tests C2 and cannot establish causation; context for the claim's unshown younger-pupil range. Abstract only.
