University of Pennsylvania study finds 'cognitive surrender' to AI chatbots

AI boosted confidence but not accuracy
Participants in the study accepted chatbot answers almost every time: 93% when the bot was right, and surprisingly, nearly 80% even when it was wrong.
Using AI made people feel more confident about their choices, but that confidence didn't always mean better decisions.
The takeaway? It's smart to use AI as a tool but don't forget to think critically and double-check before you hit "accept."
