Abstract:Generative artificial intelligence is rapidly attracting users worldwide and is integrated into their everyday lives. While digital technology use has been linked to negative mental outcomes, including rumination, the relationship between rumination and GenAI use is underexplored because of its novelty. A quantitative survey was conducted with 164 participants, assessing GenAI use intensity, productive and non-productive patterns of use, rumination, personality traits, and demographics, including age, gender, and occupation. This study concludes that rumination is linked to the GenAI use patterns rather than its duration. The research contributes to human-AI interaction literature by deepening the understanding of GenAI use and the importance of individual differences.
