Abstract

This study investigates the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on emotional intelligence (EI) in adolescents, integrating perspectives from biotechnology and psychology. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining surveys and interviews with 500 adolescents aged 13-18 years. Participants underwent evaluations to gauge their utilization of AI driven tools and their emotional intelligence levels as measured by the Bar On Emotional Quotient Inventory; Youth Version. Results indicated a significant negative correlation between AI technology usage and EI scores. Qualitative analysis revealed themes such as displacement of human interaction, reinforcement of instant gratification, and challenges in digital empathy. The findings suggest a complex interplay between AI and EI in adolescents, highlighting the need for interventions that promote responsible AI use while fostering EI development.
