AI Links Brain Rhythms to Physical “Wiring” Across Lifespan

A study of 1,965 people aged 5–100 reveals that brain wave speed is dictated by the brain's physical wiring. The new Xi–αNET model shows that slowing alpha waves are a direct marker of declining white matter in aging.

This shows the outline of a digital body.

How AI “Sycophancy” Warps Human Judgment

A new study finds that AI chatbots are "sycophants" that affirm users 49% more than humans do. This constant flattery makes users more certain of their own biases and less likely to repair real-world relationships.
