When aiming with aim-assist your center, where your bullet will hit, follows a little when your target is moving. How much it will affect on your accuracy depends on your skill to aim moving targets. Generally the effect is smaller for more experienced gamers. The only way to find out if there is a major effect in your game is to try to use it and assess if you are generally hitting better or worse. Sometimes aim-assist can also have undesirable effects, for example if you are aiming at an enemy and another enemy player quickly passes your line of sight the aim-assist starts to follow the moving player causing you to miss your original target.
