Artificial intelligence programs such as ChatGPT are here to stay - the question now is, how will they shape the future? 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?

Our sweet brown tabby cat Ginny has gone missing and we’re very worried. She hasn’t been home since 6pm Wednesday 2/7, she's never stayed out overnight so this is very odd behaviour.

🟣 Name: Ginny
🟣 Colour: Brown and black tabby cat
🟣 Marking details: Orange splotch on her head,, long tail with black tip
