Federico Cabitza is an associate professor of Human-Computer Interaction at the University of Milano-Bicocca. He specializes in the study of how emerging technologies, particularly artificial intelligence, influence cognitive processes and decision-making. His research emphasizes the importance of critical thinking and the potential cognitive risks posed by reliance on AI systems. Recently, Cabitza was involved in a significant study conducted by Microsoft Research and Carnegie Mellon University, which examined the effects of generative AI on the critical thinking abilities of knowledge workers. The findings suggest that high trust in AI can lead to diminished problem-solving skills, raising important questions about the evolving role of humans in cognitive tasks.
