futurism.com Unknown 2025-09-23 22:04:59

A new poll by the Pew Research Center has found that Americans are getting extremely fed up with artificial intelligence in their daily lives.

Fifty percent say AI will deteriorate our ability to form meaningful relationships, while only five percent believe the reverse. While 29 percent of respondents said they believe AI will make people better problem-solvers,

Linking to text fragments with a bookmarklet One of my favourite features added to web browsers in the last few years is text fragments. Text fragments allow you to link directly to specific text on a web page, and some browsers will highlight the linked text – for example, by scrolling to it, or adding a coloured highlight. This is useful if I’m linking to a long page that doesn’t have linkable headings – I want it to be easy for readers to find the part of the page I was looking for. Here’s

How arrogant would you have to be to think you’ve gained everything from a book on your first reading? A wildly intelligent friend once said this to me and it struck home. A seemingly obvious point I’d ignored for years changed my approach to reading in a way that has considerably improved my life. If you already reread books regularly, feel free to skip this.

What was once familiar becomes alien, challenging readers to look at Earth anew. It also encourages us to think more deeply about such
