(closed for review but you can still tweet)
NOTE: This is an unreviewed Preprint
Warning: This is a unreviewed preprint (What is a preprint?). Readers are warned that the document has not been peer-reviewed by expert/patient reviewers or an academic editor, may contain misleading claims, and is likely to undergo changes before final publication, if accepted, or may have been rejected/withdrawn (a note "no longer under consideration" will appear above).
Peer review me: Readers with interest and expertise are encouraged to sign up as peer-reviewer, if the paper is within an open peer-review period (in this case, a "Peer Review Me" button to sign up as reviewer is displayed above). All preprints currently open for review are listed here. Outside of the formal open peer-review period we encourage you to tweet about the preprint.
Citation: Please cite this preprint only for review purposes or for grant applications and CVs (if you are the author).
Final version: If our system detects a final peer-reviewed "version of record" (VoR) published in any journal, a link to that VoR will appear below. Readers are then encourage to cite the VoR instead of this preprint.
Settings: If you are the author, you can login and change the preprint display settings, but the preprint URL/DOI is supposed to be stable and citable, so it should not be removed once posted.
Submit: To post your own preprint, simply submit to any JMIR journal, and choose the appropriate settings to expose your submitted version as preprint.
Warning: This is an author submission that is not peer-reviewed or edited. Preprints - unless they show as "accepted" - should not be relied on to guide clinical practice or health-related behavior and should not be reported in news media as established information.
ChatGPT: Cognitive momentum or menace?
ABSTRACT
Background:
Students, teachers, corporate houses, and people from various streams have started using Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT) for already integrated information and writing. Discussions have already gained attention on ChatGPT, and some researchers also wanted to categorize this invention as a revolution.
Objective:
The authors try to elucidate the crosstalk between human cognition and Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT) and its impact on human cognition in the future.
Methods:
We searched through the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus databases with the following keywords (["Cognition" OR "Cognitive"] AND ["ChatGPT" OR "Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer"]) up to 1 August 2023.
Results:
There are reports on literature deciphering how ChatGPT works and its prospects. However, there is a dearth of articles on how ChatGPT might affect human cognition reversely.
Conclusions:
ChatGPT bears a broader perspective of artificial intelligence dedicated predominantly to several modalities assisted write-without-language barriers. The human brain works silently beyond the perception of most human beings, which is why its true potential often remains unacknowledged. We regularly do things (like reading or writing) that auto-activate numerous brain circuits to boost cognitive functions integrated. So, we should keep this practice intact and continue. We must not kneel before ChatGPT for the supreme cognitive abilities governed and given to us by Nature.
