Is pessimism an age related illness?

Louis Anslow @LouisAnslow

If we’re going to solve aging - we also must solve pessimism, and its prevalence in older generations otherwise humanity could become an authoritarian dystopic gerontocracy

A radiologist typically checks between 10,000 and 20,000 scans a year. So making this prediction came with its own risk: reduced number of radiologists. Thankfully there was no drop in radiologists since his 2016 prediction, but worth considering the risk of over-precaution.

Geoffrey Hinton admits he was wrong about AI replacing radiologists. The AI part largely went to plan: machines got very good at reading scans. What was missed? Cheaper, faster scans meant doing more scans, not fewer radiologists. AI can automate a task without automating the

France's highest court just killed the under-15 social media ban. The problem was never the kids. It was that to prove a user isn't 15, every adult in France has to prove they aren't. The Constitutional Council called that a disproportionate hit to free expression with no safeguards for private life. It was blocked three weeks before it took effect. Macron has already ordered a rewrite. reclaimthenet.org/frances-top-co…

so many of the laws being written right now are making the same Brave New World dystopia that people are trying to avoid.

Don’t let anxiety about kids these days cloud your judgement about restrictions on free speech

Jonathan Haidt makes a plea to the UK in @unherd today: don’t let understandable anxiety about free speech restrictions cloud your judgement on the social media ban for under 16s. “This needs to happen.” 👇👇👇 unherd.com/2026/07/jonath…

Ehrlich's legacy includes mass sterilization campaigns in India, China, and Peru. India's program was at such a massive scale that, in one year, they sterilized 15 times more than the Nazis did during their entire reign.
