Anyone who has interacted with superbot ChatGPT or image generator DALL-E might be wondering what the future of artificial intelligence (AI) holds for humanity.
ChatGPT is an AI program that generates text in a very human-like manner when asked questions. Just ask DALL-E or similar programs to create a picture of a French bulldog driving a pink convertible and voila: you’ll see several versions in seconds.
Science fiction in the mid-20th century created good-natured AI such as the computer on Star Trek helping the Enterprise crew, as well as its evil twin set on destroying its creators like HAL in Arthur C. Clarke’s famous book (or Stanley Kubrick’s 1968 film adaptation) 2001: A Space Odyssey. In 2023, however, we’re surrounded by AI that’s far more mundane than those examples. The virtual assistant in your smartphone, the airline chatbot and the robot vacuum cleaning your floors don’t seem to have any aspirations to rise above humanity and have been designed to help us.
We should be prepared for bigger things to come than games, better chatbots or photo generators. Connectivity is key: think of AI as a general-purpose innovation like electricity that powers and connects other technologies, including sensors, robots, genomic devices and 3D printers. AI’s use will only intensify and accelerate as faster computing technology is developed, along with greater sensors capturing data, often called the Internet of Things (IoT). In the future, AI will be interwoven in virtually every aspect of commercial and personal activities.

Everyone loves avocados – never trust anyone who doesn’t. Though we can’t get enough of the fruit, most people are missing out on a vital part of it. Although the seeds take up a large piece of the center, they’re generally thrown away after the avocado is opened. Yes, this part of the fruit may not seem appetizing, but there are some reasons you should consider indulging it before throwing it away. Within the seed are various acids, such as palmitic acid and oleic acid. While the thought of consuming acids may seem a little dangerous, not all acids are harmful to you in the proper amounts. These acids are known as lipids, and they can help protect your cells, DNA, and proteins from damage. The avocado seed is more beneficial than the other parts of the fruit when it comes to fighting diabetes and premature aging.
Lipids in avocado seeds are also known to help with inflammation. The more of these good acids you
consume, the more your body is well adapted to fighting inflammation in the long run. This means
better support against certain chronic illnesses; this will impact your quality of life significantly.
Cancer is a disease that many people fear, mainly because there’s no absolute cure for it at the moment.
Of course, it is impossible to make your body immune to the illness; there are ways for you to lower
the risk of getting it. The lipids inside avocado seeds are allegedly able to stop cancer cells from
spreading. It has a distinct impact on cancer cells in the colon and liver, although it may be effective
against the disease in any part of the body. These benefits are undoubted; just make sure you find a
way to eat the avocado seeds safely. And remember, they may help, but they are not a complete antidote
to preventing diseases.
