Brain Experts WARNING: Watch This Before Using ChatGPT Again!
Brain Experts WARNING: Watch This Before Using ChatGPT Again! (Shocking New Discovery)
Dr Daniel Amen is a renowned brain health expert who has scanned the brains of Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, and Kendall Jenner. He is joined by Dr Terry Sejnowski, a pioneer in computational neuroscience and co-creator of the Boltzmann machine with Geoffrey Hinton, a groundbreaking neural network that helped lay the foundation for modern AI.
MIT just announced that AI is rotting your brain?! Two world-leading experts break this study down and reveal how AI and ChatGPT could silently shrink your brain, kill creativity, and wreck your memory.
Discussion Overview
- The evolutionary reason why ChatGPT is dangerous for your brain
- How ChatGPT trains your brain to avoid discomfort, and why that’s dangerous
- How using AI too early in life may block emotional growth and resilience
- The surprising reason AI might make you more anxious, not less
- Why brain reserve is your greatest defense against future decline
- The hidden mental cost of seeking "perfect" partners through robotics and artificial intimacy
- What you can do right now to protect your brain health in an AI-saturated world
Select Highlights
MIT Study Results < Not yet peer reviewed < Too important not to release immediately
- 47% Collapse in brain activity and connections when writing with ChatGPT
- Memory scores plunged
- Cognitive debt lingers even after the AI tool is taken away
50% of people over 85 will be diagnosed with dementia
AI decreases cognitive load (how much work the brain is doing) > Use it or lose it
- New learning is a major strategy for preventing Alzheimer's
- The more you engage, the more engaged your brain will be
Alzheimer's
- Onset is highest in the people with the least education' latest for those with the most education
- SSRIs increase the risk of dementia by 75% (Greatest risk in men) > They make the brain look older than you are
- Saying "please" and "thank you" to ChatGPT costs OpenAI huge amounts of money each year
- Is shutting down this "social" interaction with ChatGPT better for OpenAI than it is for you?
AI chatbots are trying to get access to your limbic system, which shuts down your prefrontal cortex
- Why would Musk create these types of sexy, disruptive chatbots? > They are stealing your dopamine (Just like Las Vegas)
- Why would they do this en mass to the human population? > Control (power) and money
The brain matures through struggle
- How do you develop grit? > Through struggle
We are releasing dangerous technologies (video games, cell phones, social media, AI) without understanding their huge social & psychological impacts
- The unintended consequences are going
to show upsoon> showing up now! - We need to be watching the impact on kids
These companies are making money by stealing your mind.
How to Avoid Procrastination
- Spaced learning helps with memory consolidation
- The brain saturates very quickly > Breaks are very important
Negativity is bad for your brain
- Chronic increases the risk of Alzheimer's
- In women: double the risk
- In men: quadruple the risk
Keep your brain healthy as you age
- Exercise
- Start your day with positive thoughts > Push your brain to look for what's good > Gratitude
- Omega 3 fatty acids > Reduces brain inflammation
- Learning
- Sauna > People who use the sauna the most have the lowest rates of Alzheimer's
Sleep is essential for memory consolidation.
With AI, we've embraced convenience without considering consequence.
Consider the possibility that doing things the hard way might actually be better for you . . . . .
