A.I. Is Homogenizing Our Thoughts
Recent studies suggest that tools such as ChatGPT make our brains less active and our writing less original.

I really don’t like the guy, but he is an amusing fella at times.
Yes, he’s completely insane. And he actually posted this.

The biggest benefits seem to come to those who master their second languages fully. That in turn is usually because they have spoken them on a near-daily basis for a long time https://econ.trib.al/tm34ZFN
Is being bilingual good for your brain?
Perhaps. Learning languages offers other, more concrete benefits

Of course, I should update. But I am reluctant to because I have committed myself to a narrative. I am not alone.
A leaked, early intelligence assessment suggests Iran’s nuclear programme has only been set back by months and that some enriched uranium may have been spirited away

I am completely opposed to the way the Trump admin is handling immigration in the US. I am opposed to the admin’s trade policy. But, this does not mean everything he does is bad. There needs to be more nuance in the discourse. The Dems, other than Bernie, are weak. I hope progressives will wake up.

I think Trump should be commended for his handling of the Iran situation. I am not a fan of his, but a nuclear Iran is terrible for Iranians. There will never be regime change. Iranians are awesome people who are suffering under authoritarianism.
