A monarch butterfly on a pink zinnia

I’m out in the garden collecting seeds before this storm rolls in. The temperature is supposed to drop this week, but as of today I’m still seeing monarchs here in New York. #bugsky #bloomscrolling #gardening #butterfly #zinnia #catskills

I struggle to comprehend how any human can deliberately and knowingly murder innocent people, including thousands of children. But the Milgram Experiment [1963] - gives us insight into to human behaviour.

Inspiration booster or creative fixation? The dual mechanisms of LLMs in shaping individual creativity in tasks of different complexity - Humanities and Social Sciences Communications Humanities and Social Sciences Communications - Inspiration booster or creative fixation? The dual mechanisms of LLMs in shaping individual creativity in tasks of different complexity

💭 AI can boost or block creativity, depending on task complexity

A new study found LLMs spark creativity in simple tasks but hinder it in complex ones. Constraining AI output helps restore balance.

Creative hobbies could slow brain ageing at the molecular level To keep the mind young, dance the tango.

🧠 Creative hobbies slow brain ageing

A global study found that activities like dancing, painting, or gaming keep the brain younger by strengthening neural connections, even for beginners.

Researchers found newborns with stronger right-side social brain connectivity spent more time looking at faces at 4 months, suggesting an early social marker.

That is the genetic predisposition of the child. I'd be interested to find out social brain connectivity if both parents had education in understanding the 'serve and return' mechanism of initiating brain development with a protocol of activities to promote this, versus no education.

Again. FUNDAMENTALLY this is an early developmental, and education societal issue. Watch any group of young human animals in a playground tussling for Dominance. And then think about power and obedience behind closed doors in families with 'faith based' (unquestionably Right and in Control) 'Head'.

Context is Everything. I expect Mr Fry would agree with you regarding behavioural conditioning by authority figures and Institutions. E.g. In current education pedagogy, it is understood that higher levels of curiosity and critical thinking develop when children learn through Exploratory group work.
