To paraphrase, it seems that it is suggesting that leaning is harmed because assistant helps them to get better results, but hurt them in the process of doing so, where less understanding and thinking is involved. It is interesting that it likens that to autopilot, where FAA is recommending people to minimize for a similar reason. Since Math is known to be not a forte of Gen AI, it is a bit questionable if that contributes to the effects they are seeing. But as they claimed, it seems the effects is related to the reliance and “short cutting the thinking process” but not the ability of gen AI in that subject. That makes me think about parents helping kids to do homework (it’s a thing in Hong Kong.) The immediate effects would enhance their results in homework grades. But now I wonder if they are inadvertently hurting their exam grades. In order words, I wonder how this result would generalize to human tutor as well. I suppose it would too, and depending on their pedagogy (or the lack of) it would harms students in a similar way.
