    Our emotions tell us a lot about what’s happening in our lives.

    Because of people telling us that we emote wrong and alexithymia, however, we lose touch with them. Then we get bullied for being “emotionless”

    How do you get in touch with your emotions?

    There’s an important gap between “hope” and “optimism.”

    Hope is not just about looking on the bright side. It plays the long game: enduring suffering with integrity.

    It’s something Martin Luther King understood when he said “I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight that we, as a people, will get to the Promised Land.” But hope makes us act, anyway.

    "Even though it was hoped that machines might overcome human bias, this assumption often fails due to a problematic or theoretically implausible selection of variables that are fed into the model and because of small size, low representativeness, and presence of bias in the training data [5.]."

    Taking off my academic hat, what intelligence and genius actually are: This 2023 essay explains what intelligence is: not measuring or comparing people, but rather a characteristic of life itself, which AI can never have.
