A recent study analyzed the impact of language models, such as ChatGPT, on the human brain and cognitive abilities. Some media interpretations of this research have led to concerns about a potential weakening of brain activity associated with their use.

However, these conclusions have been described as falsely reported, stating that the study does not demonstrate that these models make the brain less active. This misinterpretation of the study contributes to misinformation in the public debate about the use of artificial intelligence.
