Students perform better academically with less AI, study finds

SMRTR summary

A major OECD study of over 760,000 students across 91 countries found that students who use less AI perform better academically, because learning requires mental effort, not passive consumption. In response, 22 states have banned phones in classrooms, and New York City and Los Angeles are now restricting AI use for more than 1 million students combined. Reading, science, and math scores have been declining for 15 years.
