Wall Street Journal tech reporter Sam Schechner says he first suspected artificial intelligence was eating his brain when he used ChatGPT to help write an email to his son's basketball coach. He lives in Paris, and speaks fluent French, but Schechner started asking AI for help with emails, summarizing legal documents, even texting friends. Soon French words didn't come as easily when effort was optional and mental concentration was offloaded to AI. He writes about his experience in a piece for The Wall Street Journal titled How I Realized AI Was Making Me Stupid-and What I Do Now.

Send us a textThe digital revolution continues to transform healthcare, and midwifery is no exception. As we launch Season 12 of The Engaged Midwife Podcast (approaching an incredible 100,000 downloads!), Missi and Cara dive into the fascinating world of artificial intelligence and its applications for midwifery students and clinicians.From study techniques to clinical decision-making, AI offers powerful tools that can streamline workflows and enhance learning—but only when used thoughtfully. We explore how tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini can help synthesize information, create customized study materials, and even assist with complex statistical analysis. However, we also examine the research suggesting that handwriting notes creates stronger neural connections than using AI-generated summaries, raising important questions about how technology shapes learning.For practicing midwives, AI has already become embedded in electronic health records and is increasingly available for generating differential diagnoses, patient education materials, and time management solutions. Yet all these applications come with important ethical considerations around data privacy, academic integrity, and environmental impact.Throughout our conversation, we emphasize the importance of critical thinking and transparency. AI works best when it augments human expertise rather than replacing it—the midwife's clinical judgment remains irreplaceable, even as technology evolves to support it. As Cara puts it, "Work smarter, not harder," but always maintain your professional knowledge and skill.#MidwiferyInnovation #AIinMidwifery #TechInBirth #SmartMidwifery #DigitalMidwife #MidwiferyEducation #WorkSmarterNotHarder @chatgpt @claudeai @microsoftcopilot @googlegemini

Jim Carrey's $10 Million Lesson  Cal has an epiphany as he's giving one of his storytelling workshops. He's able to tie the thought to the moment in 1985 when a down and out actor named Jim Carrey wrote a check to himself for $10 million to be cashed 10 years later when he became a film star. The $10 million did come to Carrey ten years later with the release of the hit Dumb and Dumber. Cal wonders how to visualize the most out of yourself even when you don't believe you're talented in a particular area. The answer applies to everyone and you might want to use it. Check out the episode.

If you're not napping from 1:30pm-4:00pm daily, then its curtains I'm afraid.This week's episode has wonderful internet reviews for protein obsessed-people and their microwaveable pork rinds, holding lightning with Disney's Hercules (1997), honey stinger energy waffles (to offset a goo dependency), the implication of piss in Dumb and Dumber (1994), and a nasty bag of onions ordered off of Amazon.

Catherine Austin Fitts, former assistant secretary of Housing and Urban Development under President George H.W. Bush, recently commented on how the US Government is responsible for $21-Trillion in “unauthorized spending” between 1998 and 2015 alone. This was documented by Mark Skidmore of Michigan State University in 2017. Catherine believes much of it went into “underground base and city infrastructure and transportation systems” that have already been built. A Washington Post article in 2010 documented the Hidden World of a massively complex national security and intelligence network infrastructure built across the country in the wake of 911. But that's only part of it, and only encompasses the decade between 2001 and 2010 - not to mention the $2.3-Trillion announced missing one day before 911 and the justification to build this infrastructure. It doesn't include the half a century of public and private construction projects for military command centers like NORAD at Cheyenne Mountain or VIP bunkers under Greenbrier Resort. Some of this is for military control, others for continuity of government, and still others for laboratories perhaps akin to the Hive, or simply for nuclear material storage. In fact NASA just found a decommissioned facility in Greenland that was home to Camp Century and Project Iceworm. All of this spending coupled with authorized military spending adds up to over half of the country's national debt. Many of these bunkers, command centers, facilities, etc., have price tags that in order to add up to the unauthorized trillions must be beyond vast, they must be numerous beyond what we can conceive. And these facilities are worldwide, likely under the ocean as much as they are buried into mountains. The wealthy are also building their own bunkers toady, some of which are luxury facilities. Then there are facilities built right under our feet and meant for flood preparations, like the G-Cans in Tokyo. There are also reports of odd booms and explosions hear around the world for several decades. Some is probably atmospheric, part is geological, and others are possible a result of these projects. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

David Carson from Dumbify delves into the intriguing concept that embracing "dumb" thinking can often lead to innovative solutions. We explore how society has cultivated a reluctance to ask seemingly foolish questions, thereby stifling creativity and potential breakthroughs. Our conversation is enriched by anecdotes illustrating how historical figures, like Isaac Newton, harnessed the power of curiosity and unorthodox thinking to arrive at revolutionary ideas. We also reflect on personal experiences and methodologies that advocate for a shift in mindset—encouraging individuals to welcome and cultivate their "dumb" thoughts as a pathway to discovery and success. Takeaways: Throughout history, the concept of 'dumb' has surprisingly provided solutions to complex problems. As individuals gain more knowledge, they often realize how much they still do not know. Encouraging the asking of seemingly 'dumb' questions can lead to significant creative breakthroughs. Creative thoughts often stem from individuals attempting to replicate others but failing, thereby generating originality. Rewarding curiosity in educational settings can foster a more open and innovative learning environment. The practice of intentionally thinking 'dumb' can lead to the development of new and effective solutions.

All of these examples are what are called Irreversible Binomials & Trinomials. The cute phrases or names that ALWAYS appear in the same order. That sound really stupid if switched–”Jelly and peanut butter anyone?” Jon and Kurt, feeling this is truly excellent smart drivel, delve into the world of irreversible binomials and trinomials. Some they think have it wrong, others they agree are culturally accepted, while still others just seem right to our co-hosts. Yet, as always, they also disagree on a few. Ladies and gentlemen there is no rhyme or reason why you shouldn't listen to this episode hook, line, and sinker. Rock and roll….

Ralph and Lauren take a bold look at a rising issue in modern marketing teams: is AI making your team dumber? Drawing from real-world agency experience, Lauren shares a transparent case study from her own business where AI tools like ChatGPT and Jasper created an illusion of productivity but resulted in lackluster, surface-level insights. The discussion tackles how over-reliance on AI can quietly erode critical thinking, replacing strategic interpretation with generic output that “feels” complete but misses true business impact. You'll learn why being “human in the loop” matters, how to train your team to use AI as a collaborator—not a crutch—and why tools should ask better questions instead of just giving faster answers. This episode is a must-listen for any marketing leader, CMO, or founder using AI to scale without sacrificing intelligence, creativity, and judgment.Chapters:00:00:00 - Kickoff & A Powerful Shoutout to Steve Sims 00:02:21 - AI in Marketing: Game-Changer or Risk? 00:04:26 - When AI Fails: A Shocking Case Study 00:08:06 - Critical Thinking vs AI: Who Wins? 00:13:24 - Smart Fixes & What's Next for Teams 00:25:52 - Final Takeaways & Must-Have ResourcesLINKS AND RESOURCES:Get Your Marketing Performance IndicatorsTM Checklist Now!Get Your nCAC Calculator Now!Get Your nCAC Calculator Now!Make Data Driven Marketing Decisions with ConfidenceThe AI-Driven Leader: Harnessing AI to Make Faster, Smarter DecisionsGo for Stupid: The Art of Achieving Ridiculous GoalsTier 11 JobsPerpetual Traffic on YouTubeTiereleven.comMongoose MediaPerpetual Traffic SurveyPerpetual Traffic WebsiteFollow Perpetual Traffic on TwitterConnect with Lauren on Instagram and Connect with Ralph on LinkedInThanks so much for joining us this week.

Patrick Bet-David discusses whether ChatGPT is affecting your brain. A new study touches on artificial intelligence's impact on cognitive impairment, especially in areas of critical thinking. The study highlights the potential risk factors associated with relying too heavily on AI tools, and the findings suggest a relationship between technology use and mental acuity.

You might laugh at Dumb and Dumber, but are you living the same way—spiritually? In this message, we explore how godly wisdom is more than just knowing the right verses—it's about building your life on truth instead of impulse. Our world celebrates fast decisions, loud opinions, and blind confidence, but scripture calls us to live wisely and cautiously. Through stories from Proverbs, Jesus' teaching, and Solomon's humble prayer, we uncover how wisdom provides clarity, protection, and opportunity. Without it, you might be making decisions that feel right… but lead to disaster. Don't just live confidently—live wisely.

We dive into a variety of topics with Chad for Dumber Than We Thought including an HBO released comedy featuring Larry David, former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama!

Greg Dworkin heard from a friend that they have a friend whose other friend says that Vladimir Putin doesn't want to go out with Donald Trump anymore. Or maybe vice versa. Anyway, somebody is gonna be upset over the resumption of arms shipments to Ukraine. Could be Trump. Certainly will be Putin. Might also be Hegseth! The eyes of Texas (and everywhere else) are still upon “Flash Flood Alley,” so they'll have to get their story straight (and tell it to the judge) about whether they do or don't have an emergency alert system, and if so, whether they did or didn't use it. They certainly should have one. After all, they're now acknowledging that extreme weather incidents are human-caused. Sort of. The national obsession over the New York City mayoral election continues, mostly because Zohran Mamdani's sizeable lead in the polls continues. The Adams camp is making some… unusual choices for managing the campaign. Or at least, someone is making them for them. Anyway, the political scientists have a heads up for you, if you've been wondering where the winning coalition would come from. Meanwhile, Donald Trump has opened up (even) dumb(er) new frontiers in his “Trade Wars,” this time with the largest coffee producer in the world and second-most-populous country in the Western Hemisphere: Brazil. And they don't like it. But they are also not as dumb, as anyone can plainly see. Dumber still, but even more frightening, Trump continues to use vast federal powers to prosecute his personal gripes. We heard the other day about his insistence that “investigations” be opened into former FBI Director James Comey and former CIA Director John Brennan. Now we learn that… for some strange reason… the Secret Service decided to tail Comey on his way back from his beach vacation, then haul him in for questioning over that “86 47” message he wrote out in seashells. And it looks like they have the same and more planned for Chris Wray, too. You know, the FBI Director Trump picked after he fired Comey.

Does Using AI Make Us Dumber? | Ep 1018 | Crazy Town Podcast

The technological landscape is transforming at breakneck speed, but what determines your success in this new world isn't your mastery of the latest AI tools - it's your AI-first mindset.  While everyone's focused on which AI applications to learn, we're neglecting something far more fundamental: the mental habits that will either propel us forward or anchor us in the past.  Your AI mindset, the questions you habitually ask, the stories you tell yourself, and the thoughts you cultivate, it shapes your preparedness for an AI-first future more than any technical skill. The key shift isn't learning to use AI faster; it's rethinking your relationship with these tools. Instead of outsourcing your thinking, the most powerful approach is using AI as a collaborator that amplifies your uniquely human capabilities.  Drawing from cutting-edge research, including MIT studies showing how passive AI use actually reduces brain activity, this episode provides a practical framework for effective AI collaboration. You'll discover how to preserve the creative, insightful aspects of your work while leveraging AI for refinement and enhancement.  Through real-world examples from writing, coaching, and content creation, you'll learn specific techniques for using AI to make your thinking sharper and your work better, not to replace your intellectual skills.  The most successful people in an AI-powered world won't be those who surrender their thinking to machines but those who become more intentional about how they think alongside their digital collaborators.  The future belongs to those who enhance their thinking with technology, not those who outsource it.    Text Me Your Thoughts and IdeasSupport the showBrought to you by Angela Shurina Behavior-First Change Leadership & Culture Transformation ConsultantEXECUTIVE & OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE COACH
