Para responder à questão, leia o texto do
imperador Marco Aurélio (121 – 180 d.C.) a seguir:
O próprio Hipócrates, que curou muitas doenças, caiu
doente e morreu. Os caldeus* previram as mortes de multidões e, ao final, o destino também ceifou suas vidas.
Alexandre Pompeu e Caio César, que destruíram muitas
cidades e tiraram a vida de milhares de soldados de cavalaria
e infantaria no campo de batalha, também um dia deixaram
esta vida. Heráclito, que muito especulou sobre a conflagração do mundo, morreu engolido pela água e coberto de estrume de gado. Demócrito foi destruído por vermes; Sócrates foi
morto por outro tipo de verme. Por que tudo isso?
Embarcaste, empreendeste tua viagem e atracaste no
ancoradouro. Desembarca. Se for em outra vida, lá também
haverá um Deus; se for no meio do nada, ao menos não
haverá mais dores e prazeres e não serás mais escravo de
um corpo tão vil quanto seu escravo. A alma é, pois, inteligência e divindade, mas o corpo, pó e corrupção.
(Marco Aurélio, Meditações. Adaptado)
*Caldeus: habitantes da Caldeia, país na antiga Mesopotâmia.
Julgado por suposta corrupção da juventude e descrença nos deuses, Sócrates foi condenado à morte por
envenenamento com cicuta, uma planta. No contexto

morto por outro tipo de verme.” (1°

Para responder à questão, leia o trecho a
seguir, extraído das reflexões filosóficas do imperador
Marco Aurélio (121 – 180 d.C.):
O homem deve levar em conta que, a cada dia, parte da
sua vida se vai e que cada vez menos resta para ele, mas
também que, mesmo que ele tenha uma longa vida, não se
sabe se sua inteligência será como antes para lidar com seus
negócios e para ter um vislumbre do conhecimento que tem
como objetivo entender tanto as coisas humanas quanto as
divinas. No início da decrepitude, a respiração, a alimentação,
a imaginação, o impulso, entre outros atributos, não falharão.
Entretanto, o autocontrole, o cumprimento de suas funções
com exatidão, a capacidade de escrutinar que se apossa
dos seus sentidos ou até de decidir quando é hora de parar,
enfim, todos os poderes que exigem uma compreensão e um
raciocínio bem treinados, serão nele extintos.
Deixa-o, então, estar ativo, não apenas porque a morte
aproxima-se a cada dia, mas porque a compreensão e a inteligência com frequência nos abandonam antes de morrermos.
(Marco Aurélio, Meditações. Adaptado)

ChatGPT May Be Eroding Critical Thinking Skills, According to a New MIT Study
By Andrew R. Chow
The study divided 54 subjects — 18 to 39 year-olds from the Boston area — into three groups, and asked them to
write several SAT essays using OpenAl's ChatGPT, Google’s search engine, and nothing at all, respectively. Researchers used an (electroencephalogram) EEG to record the writers’ brain activity across 32 regions, and found that of the
three groups, ChatGPT users had the lowest brain engagement and “consistently underperformed at neural, linguistic,
and behavioral levels.” Over the course of several months, ChatGPT users got lazier with each subsequent essay, often
resorting to copy-and-paste by the end of the study.
The paper suggests that the usage of (Large Language Model) LLMs could actually harm learning, especially for
younger users. The paper has not yet been peer reviewed, and its sample size is relatively small. But its paper’s main
author Nataliya Kosmyna felt it was important to release the findings to elevate concerns that as society increasingly
relies upon LLMs for immediate convenience, long-term brain development may be sacrificed in the process.
The group that wrote essays using ChatGPT all delivered extremely similar essays that lacked original thought,
relying on the same expressions and ideas. Two English teachers who assessed the essays called them largely
“soulless” The EEGs revealed low executive control and attentional engagement. And by their third essay, many of
the writers simply gave the prompt to ChatGPT and had it do almost all of the work. “It was more like, ‘just give me the
essay, refine this sentence, edit it, and 'm done,” Kosmyna says.
The brain-only group, conversely, showed the highest neural connectivity, especially in alpha, theta and delta bands,
which are associated with creativity ideation, memory load, and semantic processing. Researchers found this group
was more engaged and curious, and claimed ownership and expressed higher satisfaction with their essays.
The third group, which used Google Search, also expressed high satisfaction and active brain function. The
difference here is notable because many people now search for information within Al chatbots as opposed to Google
Search.
After writing the three essays, the subjects were then asked to re-write one of their previous efforts—but the
ChatGPT group had to do so without the tool, while the brain-only group could now use ChatGPT. The first group
remembered little of their own essays, and showed weaker alpha and theta brain waves, which likely reflected a
bypassing of deep memory processes.
The second group, in contrast, performed well, exhibiting a significant increase in brain connectivity across all EEG
frequency bands. This gives rise to the hope that Al, if used properly, could enhance learning as opposed to diminishing it.
Adapted from: TIME in [Accessed on 15th July 2025].
Why did the researchers mention the small sample size?

The brain-only group, conversely, showed the highest neural connectivity, especially in alpha, theta and delta bands,
which are associated with creativity ideation, memory load, and semantic processing. Researchers found this group
was more engaged and curious, and claimed ownership and expressed higher satisfaction with their essays.
The third group, which used Google Search, also expressed high satisfaction and active brain function. The
difference here is notable because many people now search for information within Al chatbots as opposed to Google
Search.
After writing the three essays, the subjects were then asked to re-write one of their previous efforts—but the
ChatGPT group had to do so without the tool, while the brain-only group could now use ChatGPT. The first group
remembered little of their own essays, and showed weaker alpha and theta brain waves, which likely reflected a
bypassing of deep memory processes.
The second group, in contrast, performed well, exhibiting a significant increase in brain connectivity across all EEG
frequency bands. This gives rise to the hope that Al, if used properly, could enhance learning as opposed to diminishing it.

ChatGPT May Be Eroding Critical Thinking Skills, According to a New MIT Study
By Andrew R. Chow
The study divided 54 subjects — 18 to 39 year-olds from the Boston area — into three groups, and asked them to
write several SAT essays using OpenAl's ChatGPT, Google’s search engine, and nothing at all, respectively. Researchers used an (electroencephalogram) EEG to record the writers’ brain activity across 32 regions, and found that of the
three groups, ChatGPT users had the lowest brain engagement and “consistently underperformed at neural, linguistic,
and behavioral levels.” Over the course of several months, ChatGPT users got lazier with each subsequent essay, often
resorting to copy-and-paste by the end of the study.
The paper suggests that the usage of (Large Language Model) LLMs could actually harm learning, especially for
younger users. The paper has not yet been peer reviewed, and its sample size is relatively small. But its paper’s main
author Nataliya Kosmyna felt it was important to release the findings to elevate concerns that as society increasingly
relies upon LLMs for immediate convenience, long-term brain development may be sacrificed in the process.
The group that wrote essays using ChatGPT all delivered extremely similar essays that lacked original thought,
relying on the same expressions and ideas. Two English teachers who assessed the essays called them largely
“soulless” The EEGs revealed low executive control and attentional engagement. And by their third essay, many of
the writers simply gave the prompt to ChatGPT and had it do almost all of the work. “It was more like, ‘just give me the
essay, refine this sentence, edit it, and 'm done,” Kosmyna says.
The brain-only group, conversely, showed the highest neural connectivity, especially in alpha, theta and delta bands,
which are associated with creativity ideation, memory load, and semantic processing. Researchers found this group
was more engaged and curious, and claimed ownership and expressed higher satisfaction with their essays.
