    - AI - 
    That is why good human creators with high quality content will get more sought after. The more things get flooded by AI content, the more a genuine connection with a human being will be craved. At least that's one possible future outlook.

    Did that for you. Sounds plausible to me (not a medical specialist in any way). Even with a disclaimer to consult your doctor attached. It can't directly browse the internet so specific papers are unlikely for now. But it can summarize general scientific theories.

    Is Ego Good Or Bad?

    MINDSET QUESTION
