Artificial Intelligence has become a part of our daily lives. It is no longer just used in research labs or factories. Today Artificial Intelligence is used in our devices learning platforms, work environments, healthcare systems, financial tools and digital communication spaces. Because of this the way people find information make decisions solve problems and manage tasks has changed a lot. 1 This study looks at how people use Artificial Intelligence to solve problems. It checks how different groups. Students, working professionals and general users. Use Artificial Intelligence in areas like education work productivity, healthcare advice, financial decisions, communication and routine task management. The research not looks at how often Artificial Intelligence is used but also checks trust, dependency, perceived reliability and ethical awareness. 6 Using an approach the study analyses Artificial Intelligence as a tool that helps human thinking. The findings show that people’s reliance on Artificial Intelligence depends on the situation and the level of risk. 15 Artificial Intelligence is used often for tasks that are repetitive and do not involve a lot of risk. However, people are more careful when it comes to sensitive or high stakes decisions. 1 Trust in Artificial Intelligence grows when it works well. Relying too much on it can raise concerns about losing independent thinking skills and privacy. This research says that Artificial Intelligence should not replace reasoning but rather work together with humans as a support system. 10 Artificial Intelligence is one of the important technological developments of our time. It is based on logic and machine reasoning and has become a flexible system powered by machine learning and natural language processing. Over the past decade cloud computing and mobile technologies have made Artificial Intelligence tools widely available putting them directly into our lives. Early Artificial Intelligence systems were mostly rule based. Did not adapt to different situations. 6 12 Artificial Intelligence can be understood as a way to simulate intelligence through machines that can perform tasks that usually require human thinking, such as learning, reasoning and language understanding. 2 As time goes on Artificial Intelligence has shifted from a discipline to a large scale system that affects almost every part of society. Modern Artificial Intelligence systems use learning models to process a lot of data detect patterns and make semi autonomous decisions. Artificial Intelligence is now used in healthcare diagnostics, financial analysis, autonomous vehicles, smart assistants, cybersecurity and personalized digital services. While Artificial Intelligence improves efficiency and innovation it also raises concerns like bias, privacy issues and accountability. 5 Artificial Intelligence, Human Reliance, Artificial Intelligence Dependency, Automation Bias, Cognitive Delegation, Decision Support Systems, Human Artificial Intelligence Interaction, Trust Calibration, Digital Transformation, Algorithmic Governance, Behavioral Adaptation, Artificial Intelligence Ethics, Cognitive Augmentation, Technological Dependency. 10-17 Advances in Computer Applications and Information Technology Special Issue Riya Sahastrabudhe | Prachi Bhendarkar
