Artificial intelligence programs such as ChatGPT are here to stay - the question now is, how will they shape the future? Will the use of AI to complete daily tasks, particularly school work, impact cognitive abilities and creativity?

Recent work out of a MIT Media Lab suggests that people who used ChatGPT have lower brain engagement than those who did not when writing their essays. While the MIT Media Lab work has driven headlines recently, others have been quick to remind us that the fear of technology is nothing new.

We want to know: Is AI an addition to the technological toolbox, or should we be having bigger conversations about the impact of AI technology?

Very nice and warm and suave.

Large size.
I'm 5'11" medium size. I normally wear a 42R (US) mens suit jacket. I think I thought because it is an overcoat it needs to be really large. I'm kind of swimming in it.

it's in prefect condition. Not a mark on it.
