"Who knows [but] one, knows none." ~ Max Müller

A plea for comparative studies, made initially for religions. It was subsequently extended to languages, cultures and probably other subjects.

How to manage expectations surrounding AI, which tend to be high, while avoiding to be dismissive? In other words, how to avoid throwing out the baby with the bathwater?

It's a good question to ask an AI bot.

A great question is kind and open-ended. It engages, inspires, informs, challenges, lets a recipient shine or leads to follow-up questions. And it doesn't need an answer, at least not right away.

@ExpatCareerDev That's not a bad question to ask. It puts the interviewer under pressure, improves the balance of power, reveals essential information and puts the interviewee in a good light. It's not an opening question, but it will work better when asked early.

@tamioladipo That while is 15 months, which is like yesterday. Let's move away from the threadmill and revisit gems.

It can work the other way as well: will we be proud of today’s post in one or nine years from now?

@realmarkpires The question of the origin hides the origin of the question.
~ François Jacqmin

"Who created God" is thinking in human terms. Is God a being? What if "God" does not need creation.

Our knowledge has transcendent boundaries that shift but remain.

Take your time to find a high-quality question. Exploring a question is much more interesting than trying to answer it.

Migration - it is not what I thought it was

It's not new, not always permanent, has complex drivers, doesn't always mean crossing borders, offers opportunities as well as challenges, ...

The history of humankind is a history of migration.

Questions 3/3
In this light, perhaps our haste to answer a question is misplaced. We should allow questions to linger, to breathe, to grow.

Questions 1/3
There's something uniquely compelling about questions. They hold a promise of discovery. The beauty of a well-crafted question lies in its ability to multiply into many more questions. Such questions are unfortunately rare.

Questions 2/3
Therefore, consider how more mundane questions can be transformed through the art of intellectual ju-jitsu. This suggests a dance with ideas where the direction isn't dictated by the immediate need for an answer but by the curiosity to explore.

When you have the slightest doubt about a quotation, assuming it fake is the safe option.

Just think about how opportune it is to construct fake quotes, how easily they spread, and compare it with the relatively hard accessibility of great works.

@DearS_o_n Great trilogy. Mentally, I'd translate them into:
* Is it the best approximation of truth to my knowledge?
* Have I thought thrice whether it adds something?
* How to ensure trust and openness in dialogue?

It may slow down conversation, but that's okay.

Our spheres of influence are much larger than our personal spaces.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

As voters and consumers we must make our actions count:

From the policies we champion, to the food we eat, to the transport we choose, to the companies we support.

We can all make environmentally friendly choices that will add up to the change we need. #WorldEnvironmentDay
