AI use linked to lower student scores in global OECD study · 3 sources tracked

A recent report from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) indicates that students who utilize AI tools for their studies generally achieve lower academic scores compared to their peers who do not. This trend was observed across a global assessment of 15-year-olds in science, math, and reading. However, the impact of AI is nuanced; while tasks like summarizing texts or drafting assignments showed negative correlations with performance, using AI for preliminary research or general learning support had a less detrimental effect. The study also highlighted that training students to critically evaluate AI outputs can mitigate negative impacts and even lead to performance improvements, suggesting that moderate and intentional AI use can be beneficial.
