Convenient actions to address certain relevant gaps in the use of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) are a current challenge in the academic environments. Improving the cognitive-digital user level of such GAI, from basic to expert level, implies, from our perspective, improving the development of analytical and critical thinking skills, involved in the so-called “digital gap”. However, this “digital gap” theoretically involves psychobiological gaps [cognitive, psychoaffective-emotional and nutritional], it is advisable to consider them on a par with other gaps in the environment which make it difficult to attend it in an isolated way (economic, territorial digital access).
We propose a classification of gaps whose categories allow relating relevant problems to the best use of the GAI in the academic field; a classification of the most common products that university students must show with or without the help of the GAI. Finally, we propose analytical/critical thinking strategies that improve the management of the necessary input/output in the GAI
