Will the use of AI to complete daily tasks, particularly school work, impact cognitive abilities and creativity?
Recent work out of a MIT Media Lab suggests that people who used ChatGPT have lower brain engagement than those who did not when writing their essays. While the MIT Media Lab work has driven headlines recently, others have been quick to remind us that the fear of technology is nothing new.
We want to know: Is AI an addition to the technological toolbox, or should we be having bigger conversations about the impact of AI technology?

I am not a regular shopper for fruit and veggies; my daughter normally buys them.
My body felt like a meal with sprouts, so I searched for the best price. Eventually, I found this outlandish, almost too obvious, case of deceptive profiteering.
For me, there are three issues.
1) The loose sprouts are placed $7.99 kg above the other $5.99 on the bottom, which is bagged. Those on the bottom are also on the club special card.
2) At first sight, it looks as though the bagged sprouts are cheaper. A second look shows that the pre-packed only has 400gm, not 500gm which I was expecting, which makes it $14.98 or $17.48 without a club card.
3) The loose sprouts at $7.99 kg do not need a card, so the comparison for a non-card holder is $7.99 vs $17.48.
How is the average person supposed to work this out?. Plus this is only one item,
