The Uneven Impact of Generative AI on Student Learning: Examining the Roles of Reliance, Evaluation Literacy, and Course Policy in AI-related Courses

The study investigates how generative AI (GenAI) affects student learning in AI-related courses, using survey data from 118 students across 12 courses. Four distinct user clusters were identified—high-use, light-use, and two moderate-use groups—each showing varying benefits and reliance patterns. The research highlights that early reliance, evaluation literacy, and instructor policies significantly influence perceived academic benefits and negative impacts, underscoring the need for institutional policies to address inequities in AI use.

Can Legal AI Know When It Is Wrong? And Do Students Know When It Is?

The study examines how Large Language Models (LLMs) can exhibit an ‘inertia of confidence’, giving incorrect legal verdicts with high certainty, and tests this on Indian Contract Act cases. Phase I audits ChatGPT, Meta AI, and Perplexity AI, introducing the High‑Confidence Error Rate (HCER) to measure dangerous certainty, finding Meta AI most prone to errors. Phase II surveys 380 Indian law students, revealing that exposure to hallucinated citations increases verification efforts but most students lack formal ethical AI training.

SkillJuror: Measuring How Agent Skill Organization Changes Runtime Behavior

Agent Skills augment large language model (LLM) agents with procedural knowledge at inference time, but current benchmarks rarely distinguish what a Skill says from how it is organized. We study this distinction through Progressive Disclosure, where a concise root file points agents to supporting resources on demand, and compare it with a normalized flat baseline.

Who Delegates to AI? Evidence from Agent Configurations in Github

The paper introduces the Agentic Adoption Index (AAI), a new measure of delegated exposure that captures whether workers actually commit tasks to AI within structured workflows. Using semantic embeddings of 888,000 agent skill specifications from GitHub and 18,000 O*NET task statements, the authors find that occupations with high delegation differ from those most vulnerable to pre-AI automation, that AAI correlates more with technical capability than with current LLM use, and that for lower‑educated occupations AAI rises with wages while it falls for higher‑educated, high‑earning workers. These patterns also appear in an independent corpus from the Manus Skills Marketplace.

Does AI Assistance Leave a Temporal Fingerprint? Detecting Overreliance in AI-Assisted Writing and Programming

The study investigates whether AI assistance leaves a temporal fingerprint in writing and programming tasks. By analyzing keystroke-level data from three corpora, the authors find that AI contributions appear in distinct bursts and that temporal patterns can almost perfectly distinguish wholesale delegation from authentic work, though ordinary collaboration remains hard to detect. The research suggests that process visibility could serve as a basis for academic integrity checks.

Access Timing as Scaffolding: A Reinforcement Learning Approach to GenAI in Education

arXiv:2605. 15850v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In recent years, generative AI (GenAI) in educational settings has become ubiquitous in university students' daily lives, despite its potential to induce over-reliance, metacognitive disengagement, and diminished learning when used unrestrictedly.
