Faster Completion, Less Learning: Generative AI Reduced Study Time on Math Problems and the Knowledge They Build
A ten-year study of 3.2 million ALEKS learning interactions reveals that generative AI reduced study time on math problems by up to 31.3% among high schoolers, but also reduced learning retention. The findings show a 25% cumulative decline in correct response odds under proctoring, indicating cognitive surrender rather than efficiency gains.
