While AI offers efficiency, educators worry about a learned dependence, potentially making students 'slaves of AI' and eroding the unique human 'fingerprint' in creativity and expression. This trend raises questions about the value of effort and the potential loss of individual signatures in art, literature, and idea generation as AI compresses labor into seconds.
