I love to stroll down in the old parts of Beverly Hills because I know of old places that have been built for four or five years.

was reading the #Norfolk local #news today not only was the entire #crime / #Court section full of #DomesticViolence cases - suspects and victims across entire spectrum of #age, #gender and #sexuality and they were all middle class white people from well off backgrounds - a rich older couple, a #lesbian couple and a lady who used to read the TV news (but appears to have lost her job in layoffs) up before the beak for attacking her boyfriend in public on a train!
I don't believe in regional stereotypes and if I go to Essex news site or even Wiltshire I see much the same reports - it really seems that peoples #relationships are just falling apart everywhere makes me glad I am single and have 0 kids from previous relationships, so much less drama / stress in my life...
I had a great experience at Age-Friendly AI's codesign workshop (https://agefriendlyai.ie/). The workshop explored older adults' views—their perceptions, hopes, and concerns—about AI's role in daily life.

How to Cure Aging – During Your Lifetime?
Why Age? Should We End Aging Forever?
The #rebirth of the #renaissance - or the renaissance of #modern #man in the light of #artificial/#artistic #intelligence
The essay focuses on the #image of man, #art, #science and #thinking of that #time and attempts to build a #bridge to the #new #age. Based on the #assumption that we are currently also in a kind of “Renaissance”, the aim is to establish links to the era of that #time.

I’m pretty sure it’s written in the Dutch constitution that you have to ask “what do you do?” before “who are you”… 😅
Anyone else got some fun (culturally unnuanced) facts about other countries?
"#Brain #Age" is a neuroimaging-based #Biomarker that estimates an individual's brain health and "biological" age by analyzing structural features from MRI scans.
The difference between this predicted brain age and one's chronological age can indicate whether the brain is aging faster or slower than expected.

66-year old glider pilot sets distance and speed records.
The sport of soaring / gliding doesn't favor the young with amazing strength, speed, and endurance.

AI isn't just missing the wisdom of older people; it is missing any resemblance to wisdom. After all, AI is designed to make quick decisions, not sit back, think about it, and ask you to reformulate it. Without listening and understanding, there can be no wisdom.
