Knowledge Workers’ Perceptions of Generative AI and the Erosion of Human Skills
Original language description
Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is transforming knowledge work but raises concerns about its impact on essential human skills. This study explores perceptions of AI-related risks – skill loss, human skill erosion, and critical thinking reduction – among 543 professionals, focusing on differences by gender and AI experience. One-way ANOVAs revealed that AI experience significantly affects risk perception, with those having more than 3 years of experience reporting higher concerns than less experienced users. Gender differences were significant for human skill erosion, with males reporting higher perceptions than females. These findings emphasize the need for critical engagement and training to balance AI adoption and preserve human capabilities.
