An MIT Media Lab study used EEG to track what happens in the brain when people write with ChatGPT rather than on their own. Fifty four students completed essay tasks while wearing electrode caps. One group used ChatGPT, one used a search engine, and one used no tools. Across sessions, the ChatGPT group showed the weakest neural connectivity in networks linked to memory, attention, and analytical work. They also had more trouble recalling what they had just written and produced more generic prose. The authors describe this as a kind of cognitive debt: the tool does the synthesizing, and the brain stays quieter [1].

The same experiment points to a better order of use. Students who first wrote unaided and only later switched to ChatGPT showed stronger recall and more widespread brain activity than students who started with the model and then had to work alone. In other words, the model helped more when it scaffolded thinking that was already underway than when it replaced that thinking from the start. The practical lesson is not that large language models should be banned. It is that they work best as a second pass, after the writer has already done the hard part of forming and remembering an argument [1].

Three teenagers in India have built a refrigerator that could help save lives, and it runs on nothing more than salt and water. No electricity. No batteries.

In 2025, 16- and 17-year-olds Dhruv Chaudhary, Mithran Ladhania, and Mridul Jain created Thermavault, a portable cooling system designed to keep medicines and vaccines cold in places where reliable electricity is difficult to obtain.

The device can maintain temperatures of around 2 to 6 °C (35 to 43 °F) for 10 to 12 hours, making it suitable for storing temperature-sensitive medical supplies. Even better, the salts used in the cooling process can be reused, which helps keep operating costs low.

Their idea earned them the Earth Prize Asia 2025 and $12,500 in funding. They now plan to build 200 units and test them across 120 hospitals in India.

The inspiration came from a real problem. During COVID-19, many rural clinics struggled to keep vaccines cold because of unreliable power. Their solution is simple, portable, and potentially life-changing.

Three teenagers. Salt, water, and one idea that could bring reliable cold storage to the places that need it most.

Apps and 'wikis' that rely on A.I-generated content are on the rise, spewing unreliable and outright false information into the community at large.

At Bulbapedia, our policies are clear; if A.I made it, we don't want it!

The reason why you don’t see this kind of animation often is because it requires an extreme love for life and the way living creatures move. And that kind of devotion demands time, discipline, and excessive observation.

A truck driver spent 21 years building New York City in miniature.

Joe Macken began the project in 2004, creating the city piece by piece in his spare time using materials including balsa wood, cardboard and glue.

The finished model contains more than 800,000 structures and stretches roughly 50 feet (15 m) across.

After videos of the model went viral on TikTok, the Museum of the City of New York contacted Macken and turned the project into an exhibition.

“He Built This City: Joe Macken’s Model” opened at the museum in February 2026.

Andrew Garfield isn’t ready to reach out to Tom Holland about the massive success of “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” or “The Odyssey" because he hasn't seen either film:

“I don’t want to be disingenuous. A movie making money and people going to see it is an incredible thing, but I will reach out to him once I’ve seen [“Spider-Man”], which I’m very excited to see. And his other film, ‘The Odyssey,’ I haven’t managed to see either yet. I will send him a message when I see the work he has done.”
