While this was actually what lots of studies were saying, it turned out that huge part of things being this way is moderate drinkers often being wealthy people. Those with money can afford to drink socially daily, and they can afford good healthcare, healthy living, quality everything. At the same time poor people, even if trying to live healthy, cannot afford many of these things.

The way traditional studies work is they show correlation between two things. Very often viewed out of context, information may look useless, or be used for propaganda. Many things only make sense when viewed as part of more complex systems.

it is important where data centers are built and how they are powered and cooled. i believe it is important to regulate towards public benefit

also, rich students tend to do better than poor ones, amazing

> How AI use relates to student performance is complex, varying with how students use it and what for. PISA data show that students who use AI for specific schoolwork tasks, such as summarising texts, drafting or conducting research, attain lower scores in science than students who do not use AI. In these scenarios, students who do not use AI outperform those who do, on average, by around 20 points – equivalent to being around one year of schooling ahead of their peers. However, weekly users of AI for general purposes have similar performance outcomes to non-users. Students who regularly use AI for general purposes, and have learning opportunities at school to develop AI literacy skills, tend to have slightly higher scores in science. However, these opportunities are more common among socio-economically advantaged students, risking a growing AI divide.

this says that rich students do better

> those who reported using AI to help them learn frequently […] tend to slightly outperform their peers

i believe unreflected criticism it to be dangerous and unhealthy

If OECD is trying to "both sides" this topic, then they are following the rules of AI Fight Club: Never suggest not using AI.

They had an art assignment to use AI and the class refused, making art like AI instead.

I hope someone threw in extra fingers.

As far as I’m concerned, she’s a genius.

Some MIT professor was like "go ahead, use AI, it'll help you learn computer science and this class!" but he described it as building blocks on building blocks. Unfortunately, if you use the Easy Button, you don't learn anything, so by the time the next block came by you were already one block behind knowledge-wise. It felt like the professor was encouraging his students to fail and be left behind, gleefully.
