Trump ordenó a todo museo y sitio histórico de EEUU que retire de la vista del público esta foto de un esclavo de 1863. La esclavitud no debe recordarse. La derecha siempre quiere "dar vuelta la página" y olvidar el pasado, vieron? El porqué es obvio.

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done. My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it. I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.

Un estudio del MIT revela que usar asistentes de IA para escribir reduce la conectividad cerebral y el rendimiento cognitivo en comparación con usar solo el cerebro o Google. ⚠️El uso de IA generaría "deuda cognitiva": un alto costo a largo plazo por usar "atajos mentales" hoy.
