Overview
Avoid ChatGPT overuse by adding the option for user reflection and delayed gratification following each prompt.
Over reliance on LLMs such as ChatGPT is linked to, “a decline in cognitive abilities, a diminished capacity for information retention, and an increased reliance on these systems for information”. Researchers from UToronto found that these tools improve short-term performance, but over time, they negatively affect creativity. This is especially concerning for students, who frequently face tight, high-pressure deadlines that can encourage over reliance on these tools. Avoiding all AI use might be the answer for some people, but generative AI can be useful for some tasks when approached with moderation. This tool offers a way for students and others to avoid LLM overuse by adding the option for user reflection and delayed gratification. ✨Feature Overview ✨ Require additional reflection before you receive your answer from ChatGPT: ⭐ Can I come up with this answer myself? ⭐ Would Google work just as well? ⭐ Am I losing anything by resorting to AI use? Set a customizable cooldown time between prompts: ⭐ Avoid instant gratification by adding a delay before you can get a response from ChatGPT ⭐ Avoid prompting repetitively without thinking Relevant Papers to Check Out: - To Trust or to Think: Cognitive Forcing Functions Can Reduce Over Reliance on AI in AI-assisted Decision-making - The effects of over-reliance on AI dialogue systems on students' cognitive abilities: a systematic review - Generative AI enhances individual creativity but reduces the collective diversity of novel content - From tools to threats: a reflection on the impact of artificial-intelligence chatbots on cognitive health - Human Creativity in the Age of LLMs: Randomized Experiments on Divergent and Convergent Thinking Other Resources: - You are a better writer than AI.
