I haven't read the entire paper, but just looking at the abstract and conclusion it ironically seems...lazy? Like we're going to have some people use ChatGPT 4 times in 4 months and draw conclusions on long-term brain activity based on that? How do you even control for noise in such a study?
I'm generally sympathetic to the idea that LLMs can create atrophy in our ability to code or whatever, but I dislike that this clickbaity study gets shared so much.
