Depends who's using it. Like many tools the force multiplier depends on the operator.

I'm confident it's an amplifier for people who know how learning works and already do a lot of it, successfully. However the level of "learning fluency" I'm talking about isn't reached for many until late college or grad school, and sometimes not at all. So I'm not surprised by the quoted results for 12-18 year olds.

How would you prove/disprove this assumption without falling into a True Scotsman fallacy?

And people who want to learn. Most teenagers lack agency in their studies. They aren't in high school because they love it but because they have no choice.

Sometimes things are just common sense pure and simple.

    The discussion is about "AI", so common sense is out the window. These people's professional reputations depend on addict-level "AI" usage remaining socially acceptable.
