And I think eventually NASA told them it was like some kind of radio interference between one part and the other.

And so they explained it away that way.

But there was some weird sound that they heard when they first got to the moon.

So there might be some kind of really weird sound when you get out on there.

Okay.

Well, there's a story about AI assistance reducing persistence and hurting independent performance.

They did some kind of trial with 1,200 or so people, and they said AI kind of puts you in this short-term task mindset where it's like they'll try and optimize for a short-term result, but they don't really think long-term and play the long game sort of thing.

And so they said this effect appears after just 10 minutes that it gives you these instant answers.

So you don't have that struggle you need to be able to really learn something.

And so it, you know, it points out that persistence predicts long term skill acquisition.

And so it's really a warning to people constantly.

That you need to watch out for that because otherwise you might never, you know, really pick up skills over the long term or having a good long term result because the AI is sort of putting you in this short term mindset where you're not really looking to gain those long term skills.

I mean, to me, a lot of it depends, but I do think it's dangerous because of the types of things I said earlier about how you can't really trust AI.

It's not really thinking.

It makes it appear like it's thinking, and it does a good job of mimicking what thinking looks like.

But it doesn't really know the truth.

It doesn't stop and really think and say, hey, wait a second.

This is not right.

And this is fake.

And so I think I personally at least wouldn't trust it to just do all my thinking for me because it's going to make mistakes and probably really stupid ones and make me look like a fool.
