London, Oct. 20 -- A majority of Indian students worry that while AI helps them work faster, they are not learning material as deeply, according to a new global survey released in the UK this week.

More than eight in 10 (82 per cent) of the 758 Indian students surveyed as part of over 6,000 worldwide for the 'HP Futures 2026'

found that when they want to retain material, young learners still reach for analogue methods such as printing or handwriting notes.

The survey also revealed that Indian students believe artificial intelligence alongside durable skills, such as creativity and critical thinking, are key for the future job market.

"Educators, policymakers and employers share a responsibility to prepare young people for the opportunities and challenges they will encounter throughout their lives and careers," said David McQuarrie, Chief Commercial Officer at HP and Chair of HP Futures.

"As artificial intelligence rapidly transforms how we learn and work, that responsibility has never been more

important.

Education systems must do more to help students develop, demonstrate and continuously strengthen the capabilities that will remain valuable regardless of how technology evolves," he said.
