AI and cognitive offloading

AI tools, from smart assistants to predictive algorithms, have transformed how people process information. The ease of accessing instant solutions has led to cognitive offloading, where individuals shift memory and problem-solving tasks to technology (Nosta, 2025). 
This phenomenon is not new—search engines have already altered how people retain information, a trend known as the "Google Effect" (Gong & Yang, 2024). However, AI’s increasing role in reasoning and analysis takes this a step further, allowing users to bypass the deep thinking that traditional problem-solving requires.

While cognitive offloading can be beneficial, freeing mental space for complex tasks, it also risks eroding critical thinking when overused. AI-generated content and decision-making tools can discourage independent analysis, making users passive consumers rather than active thinkers.
