Core Insights - Generative AI is reshaping various industries and fundamentally changing human writing, cognition, and thinking processes, with initial optimism suggesting it could lead to "work equity" [1] - However, recent studies indicate that generative AI is reinforcing a "seniority bias" in the labor market, exacerbating inequality rather than alleviating it [4][6] Group 1: Impact on Labor Market - A study analyzing employment data from 2015 to 2025 reveals that while both junior and senior positions saw similar growth until 2022, a divergence began in 2023, with junior positions declining by 7.7% in AI-adopting companies [6] - The CEO of Ctrip commented that AI is likely to replace entry-level intellectual labor, worsening challenges faced by younger individuals in education, marriage, and early career stages [6] Group 2: Academic Productivity and Creativity - A large-scale natural experiment analyzed over 419,000 academic papers across 21 disciplines before and after the release of ChatGPT-3.5, revealing a dual effect: increased productivity but also heightened content homogeneity [10][12] - The study found that the average annual publication rate increased by 0.9 papers, and the quality of published journals improved by 6%, particularly in technical and physical sciences [16] Group 3: Long-term Effects on Individual Creativity - A follow-up longitudinal study indicated that while AI usage temporarily boosts creativity, this advantage dissipates once AI assistance is removed, suggesting that the enhancement is not sustainable [33] - The study also highlighted that even two months after ceasing AI use, participants who had relied on AI exhibited significantly higher content similarity in their outputs compared to those who had not used AI, indicating a lasting impact on cognitive diversity [33] Group 4: Recommendations for AI Usage - Companies and individuals are encouraged to use AI as a "thought partner" rather than a crutch, ensuring that critical thinking and decision-making remain human-driven [38] - Establishing "no-AI time" is recommended to maintain cognitive skills and prevent dependency on AI for creative tasks [39]
