Each political tribe interprets reality to preserve identity, belonging, and meaning. What looks like absurd blindness is really a defense against the terror of insignificance. Beliefs arenāt neutral; they safeguard worlds. We donāt debate policies; we protect meaning itself.

The terror is in how many people are willing to burn down the world to prove their illusions right.

Iām beginning to think itās dogmatic certainty and nihilistic despair thatās strangling America: one refuses compromise while the other refuses hope. Together, they make polarization feel permanent.

Working in higher education, students often ask me what they should study. My answer is to study EVERYTHING. Be a generalist. Master how to learn, and fall in love with the process.

Having pride for your nation is healthy so long as you remain aware that your nation is a fiction, an abstract concept that only exists in an intersubjective space--it's imaginary, so your pride for it should be modest at best.

Ironic how we're cutting education funding while saying we need to "beat China in AI." You know what actually helps win tech races? Investing in STEM education and creating more scientists and engineers. Can't lead in artificial intelligence with natural unintelligence.

As

grows more ubiquitous, embedding itself into all our devices, features like memoryāand soon, perhaps, lifetime memoryāwill bring some of the greatest boons for personalized education; and some of the greatest dangers.

If
#Trumpās
years in the political spotlight have taught us anything, itās that he is laughably ignorant of basic government and economic principles, and his capricious, thoughtless, erratic decisions make it impossible to take any of his mandates as stable and lasting.

U.S. as a manufacturing powerhouse is great until you realize we lack the infrastructure. China builds a hospital in a week; it takes us 2 yrs to fill a pothole. You can't bring jobs home without the plants, factories, & facilities ready to roll nowānot decades from now.

I'm beginning to view the Al Revolution in much the same way that we now view the Agricultural Revolution: The Al Revolution is a trap. It is providing us with technological abilities that, in the long run, will not increase our general happiness and well-being.

This is great in its own way, but it could tempt institutions, including smaller ones, to increase class sizes and reduce reliance on faculty, which will lead to fewer available teaching positions.

We see that people can quickly and easily become blinded by the bright halo of charisma and power, and this bias obstructs the darker parts of the revered. Total devotion without even a fraction of critical scrutiny to an idea, a person, a thing, etc. is a sickness.

AI and INSURANCE CLAIMS

companies deflecting responsibility by attributing wrongful claim denials to "AI errors" is fundamentally dishonest. These

#Musk
might want to reassess his stance on

. As a failed businessman himself and therefore empathetic to Muskās plight, it seems that
#Trump
has launched a taxpayer-funded rescue mission for
