AIhub Coffee Corner: does AI change the way we think?
AIhub Coffee Corner: does AI change the way we think? This month we ask whether AI tools are changing the way we think. Joining the conversation this time are: Joydeep Biswas (The University of Texas at Austin), Sanmay Das (Virginia Tech), Rina Dechter (University of California, Irvine), Sabine Hauert (University of Bristol), Michael Littman (Brown University), and Marija Slavkovik (University of Bergen). There's just so much to discuss there. I don't know how to start. First of all, it is definitely changing how we write code, develop code, think about correctness, and work on projects. Once upon a time, implementation used to be bottlenecked by writing the code. We are no longer bottlenecked by writing the code, we are bottlenecked in testing and understanding for correctness. As a researcher, there's a lot of what I would call throwaway tools.
There Is No Male Loneliness Crisis. What's Actually Happening Is So Much Darker.
One group of people is more isolated than anyone else. Become a member to share 10 free articles a month. Men are lonely, you've probably heard. "Few men will admit it, but it's true of most of them," declared Los Angeles Times columnist Jean Guerrero in one in a tsunami of recent takes on the "male loneliness epidemic." Guerrero partially blamed the "virtual world" and its "pornography and ideological provocation." A Guardian columnist theorized, "Many men are socialized to prioritize strength, independence and stoicism, making it difficult for them to open up and form emotional connections." An Atlantic writer agreed, writing, "Friendships are hard to maintain but the social stigma that some men face when opening up and being vulnerable can make things even harder." A "punk-rock psychologist" told Vice that men have low emotional intelligence. BuzzFeed has cranked out 12 posts about male loneliness in 2026 alone (so far, at least). Some of them are pretty brutal--for example, " 27 Loser Men Whose Actions Single-Handedly Prove the'Male Loneliness Epidemic' Is Self-Inflicted ." The inability of men to form friendships, or even make conversation, with each other is a ready setup for a bit.
