In this episode of The Professor is Live! with Mark Salisbury, producer Rikko and guest Dr. Victor Law tackle the question: is AI making us smarter or dumber? Building on an MIT study suggesting chatbots might dull our thinking, they explore how AI tools can both hinder and enhance human problem-solving. Dr. Law argues that when used wisely, AI doesn’t weaken our minds—it frees us to focus on creativity, critical thinking, and deeper learning.
