Kattimani VS, Raj HK. Impact of ChatGPT, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning on the Writing Capabilities of Youngsters. 2025; 2 (2):iv-vi.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming educational practices, particularly in the domain of writing. Among its applications, machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), and generative models such as OpenAI's ChatGPT are increasingly influencing how young learners develop writing skills. This editorial synthesizes current evidence on the effects of AI-driven tools on writing development, creativity, and learning efficiency, while critically examining ethical and pedagogical implications. AI tools offer immediate feedback, support idea generation, and streamline writing processes, yet they also raise concerns regarding over-reliance, diminished critical thinking, and academic integrity. By highlighting both opportunities and challenges, these editorial aims to inform educators, researchers, and policymakers on the responsible integration of AI technologies to enhance writing capabilities without compromising foundational learning principles.
