As part of Dr Lucas Dixon's PhD research, he conducted three studies (collective N = 1,023), exploring the psychology of people who believe in manifestation; the ability to cosmically attract success in life through positive self-talk, visualization, and symbolic actions. I recently stumbled across one of his papers about his research exploring 'the psychology of belief in manifestation' and decided to reach out and see if he would chat with me about his work. He said yes! Enjoy.

Understandably, there’s a growing concern that AI could be the beginning of the end for our cognitive function, creativity, and IQ. My opinion is that we shouldn’t worry but we should be cautious and aware. There’s a big distinction between using AI to outsource our thinking and using it as a collaborative tool (one that’s in our control, not the other way round) to improve performance, efficiency and outcomes in different, contexts, tasks and capacities. We explore this and lots more in this instalment TYP.

#2215 Can AI F*ck Up Our Brain? - Patrick Bonello

It seems that people are becoming addicted to more and more things. But are they actual addictions in the context of some of the more recognisable and familiar addictions (drugs, booze, gambling, porn)? Or, are they ‘mere’ obsessions, compulsions or disorders that also lead to poor, and sometimes devastating, personal outcomes? Is there a line? If so, what is it, and where is it? This is a complicated topic and conversation, but at the very least, we had an interesting chat about it. Enjoy.
