Summary

AI may undermine reasoning—or strengthen it. In a longitudinal study of 372 Chinese medical students using an AI-assisted diagnosis tool during supervised rotations, greater use correlated with higher AI literacy and critical thinking. AI literacy partially mediated this link. Although this study lacked a non-AI comparator group, the results identify some potential drivers of how learners best build critical thinking with AI.
