Mapping generative AI use in the human brain: divergent neural, academic, and mental health profiles of functional versus socio emotional AI use

A neuroimaging study of 222 university students reveals that generative AI use produces divergent brain and mental health outcomes depending on usage patterns: functional AI use correlates with better academics and larger prefrontal regions, while socio-emotional AI use associates with depression, anxiety, and smaller social-processing brain areas. The findings suggest AI's impact on the developing brain is highly context-dependent, requiring differentiated approaches to maximize educational benefits while minimizing mental health risks.

Latent 3D Brain MRI Counterfactual

Researchers developed a two-stage method using Structural Causal Models in latent space to generate high-quality 3D brain MRI counterfactuals, addressing the challenge of limited training data in medical imaging. The approach combines VQ-VAE encoding with causal modeling to produce diverse, high-fidelity brain MRI data beyond the original training distribution.
