Memory:
Neuroscience Says You Can Improve Your Memory With Emotion (but There's 1 Important Catch) The key is the types of emotions you're feeling. "A recent study discusses how things like negative emotions, such as fear or anger, can sometimes hinder associative memory--the ability to connect different pieces of information. This is known as emotional interference. In high-stress scenarios, such as crisis management training, the challenge is to balance the emotional content so it enhances learning without overwhelming the learners." https://www.inc.com/nick-hobson/neuroscience-says-you-can-improve-your-memory-with-emotion-but-theres-1-important-catch.html Are users just a component of the systems or human people? Lets use human! https://www.technologyreview.com/2024/04/19/1090872/ai-users-people-terms/ Research finds that 4-yr-olds can outperform AIs in an important way. AI tools like image generation engines and chatbots are information -retrieval machines. They retrieve and reorganize existing information. They cannot produce innovative ideas. AI cannot use retrieved information develop new idea or appreciate how to use that information in ways never written of before. A report from the University of Oxford and comments from Harvard experts both suggested it's ability dream up new connections (plus empathy and EQ) make humans necessary. https://www.inc.com/jessica-stillman/scientists-pitted-4-year-olds-against-ai-kids-crushed-machines-1-skill.html A brief comparison chart of guidelines
