A Chatbot-Free Childhood Will Be a Status Symbol

The Atlantic - Technology

AI is like ultra-processed food for developing brains. T he human brain has evolved to learn from specific instructors. When a child hears a gentle spoken word or a soothing lullaby from another person, when their cry is responded to, their brain lights up. Nurturing interactions, or what child-development experts call "serve and return" exchanges, help shape and strengthen the 1 million new neural connections taking place in a child's brain every single second. Every time a child cries or serves up a bid for attention and receives a caregiver's response, that back-and-forth helps build the circuits underlying their communication, learning, and emotional well-being.


Your Apple Watch calorie tracker is an educated guess, not a fact

Engadget

The easy answer is that truly accurate calorie expenditure can't be obtained from your wrist. As smartwatches are unable to measure your metabolism, they have to analyze data such as heart rate measurements or the distance you've covered during a run before they can make a ballpark guess at how many calories you've burned. Whereas fitness wearables can directly measure your heart rate from your wrist, energy expenditure has to be calculated through proxy methods, such as machine learning algorithms. Anna Shcherbina, an assistant professor who also worked on the Stanford University study mentioned above, partially blames the algorithms wearables are using to assess calorie output. "My take on this is that it's very hard to train an algorithm that would be accurate across a wide variety of people because energy expenditure is variable based on someone's fitness level, height and weight, etc," stated Shcherbina.

Energy drinks to be banned for under-16s in England from April

BBC News

Children under 16 will be banned from buying high-caffeine energy drinks in England from April, the government has said. Drinks containing more than 150mg of caffeine per litre will be illegal to sell to children and younger teenagers in shops, restaurants, cafes, vending machines and online. Lower-caffeine soft drinks, such Diet Coke, are not affected and neither are tea and coffee. However, drinks including Red Bull, Monster, Relentless and Prime would all breach the limit. The new rules aim to reduce obesity levels in children and prevent issues such as disrupted sleep, increased anxiety and lack of concentration, as well as poor school results.
