Very pleased to see our new article out in JEPOP. It details some of the fascinating insights we gleaned from digitalising and cleaning almost 800 individual-level polls carried out by Gallup in Britain between 1955-1991.

“When participants used ChatGPT to draft essays, brain scans revealed a 47% drop in neural connectivity across regions associated with memory, language, & critical reasoning.

Their brains worked less, but they felt just as engaged—a kind of metacognitive mirage.”🧪

Agree with much of what Cyrus says in his blog post and the comments below.

I'd add that some of the best recent work in poli sci is mixed methods, and uses a combo of observational data, experiments/quasi-experiments, and in-depth interviews/case studies to answer a puzzle from multiple angles.
