The wheels are off ...
The wheels are off. Combine this with the supremes granting the DOGE team launched by Elon Musk unfettered access to information collected by the Social Security Administration, data that includes Social Security numbers, medical and mental health records, and family court information.
Splinterlands awaits ...
Not right!!!
An extinction-level event ...
dismantling a once great nation for China at no cost.
Something to think about don't you think?

The genius myth ...

High IQ does NOT equate to genius. Richard Feynman's IQ was 125. The last time I checked, Feynman was a genius so ... high IQ does NOT equate to genius. These characteristics, IMHO, do.
Curiosity, as prime driver, is the key to creativity without question.
The Act of Creation - Arthur Koestler: The creative act is the joining together of two or more seemingly dissimilar ideas that generate a heretofore unexpected result. i.e. Chemistry - H20 consists of 2 Hydrogen + 1 Oxygen atoms, both explosive yet, when combined, becomes water.
The joke: Henny Youngman - Take my wife, Please. :)
Creativity starts with the asking of a question: Why is this the way it is?
Question everything - Einstein
The ability to see relationships is key because everything is connected as reality is a Quantum space and entanglement stitches it together.
Play is indispensable. What if ... is the real deal here. A sense of wonderment is essential.
Creativity takes courage as new ideas disrupt the "natural" order of things.
Creativity is problem-solving. It matters not the discipline used save that said discipline shapes how the creative act is produced.
The act itself is ineffable and cannot be explained. Like quantum, creativity just happens. It cannot be forced, only acted upon when the idea shows up. The finished act is anything but as it can be explained after the fact without issue.
Practice makes better. Beginners mind and intuition are key.
The size of the problem solved dictates the significance of the creative act. i.e. Mixing anchovies with pineapples on a pizza is a creative act. The size or importance of the problem solved, not so much while Einstein's Theory of relativity proving that Newton was wrong at universal scale, is.
Creativity, like tech and existence, has no morality. It simply is.
Stay hungry, stay foolish - Stewart Brand/Whole Earth Catalog. :)
AI is but a tool, the issue now becomes, does the tool become the master?
As per the Atlantic ...
Reality is fractal.

Cn U C Me Now?
The losing of the humanities, along with the inability to read and write cursive, leaves the world a little less interesting and vital as we move toward a reality increasingly driven by tech and AI.
With this in mind ...
And this ...
It looks like the "learn to code" push is backfiring spectacularly for those who bought in.
