🧠 Does ChatGPT change your brain? MIT's viral study and the truth behind the image

In recent days, an image has gone viral on social media claiming that MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology - 麻省理工学院 - Má shěng lǐgōng xuéyuàn)) performed brain (脑 Nǎo) scans on ChatGPT users and that the results were "terrifying." The post shows two brain hemispheres: one supposedly from a ChatGPT user, with active connections, and the other from a non-user, with less activity.


But... is this true? Can the use of artificial intelligence like ChatGPT really modify our brain activity?

🔍 Analyzing the content

First, it's important to clarify that there is no scientific evidence or official MIT studies published on brain scans linked to ChatGPT use. The image is part of a striking visual campaign, designed to capture attention and go viral, but it does not represent an actual scientific study.

💡 Can AI (Artificial Intelligence - 人工智能 Réngōng zhìnéng) stimulate our brain  (脑 Nǎo)?


Although this image is sensationalist, there is some truth behind the idea: using tools like ChatGPT can stimulate certain cognitive functions such as:

  • Creativity, by helping you generate new ideas.
  • Critical thinking, when you compare what the AI ​​says with other sources.
  • Mental organization, when structuring texts, planning, or learning languages.


But like everything, it depends on how we use it. If we use it as a tool to think, learn, and create, it can be very enriching. If we use it passively, without questioning or reflecting, it can have the opposite effect.

🧠 With or without AI: your brain is still the protagonist


The important thing is not whether you use ChatGPT or not, but how you use it. Artificial intelligence does not replace your ability to reason, create, or imagine. It is just a tool. The truly "scary" thing would be to stop thinking for ourselves.

I asked ChatGPT if that's true. I told him if he made me feel bad, I'd go with Gemini and Deep Seek. 🤣🤣 ---

Maybe the passionate moves of tango , the sweeping lines of the Andes mountains , or the checkerboard rhythm of Buenos Aires’ architecture . Argentina is not just a country—it’s a visual journey that plays with contrast, motion, and emotion. From a perceptual point of view, Argentina is full of striking illusions in real life: The pampas stretch endlessly, making the sky feel impossibly close.

It’s not glamorous, but knowing what to expect can save you from awkward surprises.  📌 Here’s a quick guide to toilets in China, from squat toilets. 🚽 Squat Toilets Are Still Common In many public places — especially outside big cities — you’ll find squat toilets rather than Western-style seats. These are floor-level fixtures where you squat instead of sit. They’re hygienic in terms of contact, but can be tricky if you're not used to them. Pro tips: Always carry tissues or toilet paper — most public toilets don’t provide any. Hand sanitizer is a must, as soap and water aren’t guaranteed either. If you're not sure how to use one, look for diagr...
