From Assistance to Dependence: The Growing Influence of Chatbots in Human Life
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Digital Dependence in Human?Chatbot Interaction
Abstract
The rapid rise of Artificial Intelligence, particularly conversational models like ChatGPT, has revolutionized how individuals learn, work, and communicate. Since 2021, AI has shifted from a futuristic concept to an everyday reality, reshaping expectations and experiences across educational and professional spaces. With ChatGPT's introduction in 2022, it's adoption grew exponentially as students and users embraced it as a powerful support system that can solve assignments, coding tasks, and offer real-time guidance. This paper explores the emergence and widespread usage of chatbots, highlighting the massive growth in user engagement and the transformation in learning patterns. It also examines the emerging dependency on AI tools and emphasizes the importance of balancing innovation with independent thinking to ensure technology remains an aid, not a replacement, for human intellect.
