In recent years, the rapid growth of technology and the increasing dependency on Artificial Intelligence have led to significant global changes in education and the way students learn. It is now important to understand which mode of learning (traditional or AI-integrated) has a greater impact on student’s intelligence and in what ways. The human mind is also like a machine; it gets trained every day through the new and existing inputs it receives from its surroundings. To further explore this impact, a survey was conducted among students, teachers and working professionals to analyze their dependency on AI-based learning and its influence on creativity, cognitive development, and learning behaviour.104 participants had participated and given their reviews on how the Artificial Intelligence is influencing their minds and habits. A few constructive suggestions were also collected to address and minimize this emerging issue of technological dependence.
