When AI Tutors Speak: Evidence from a Randomized Field Experiment

Students increasingly study alongside generative artificial intelligence (AI), yet unguided access to fluent answers invites cognitive offloading, and there is little evidence on which configurations of AI tutoring produce learning. Two design margins are usually bundled together: pedagogical structure (how the tutor t...
