Two things I love: network theory and neuroscience!
𝗜𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘅 𝗻𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸?
In a sense yes, but does network science help us understand the brain as a complex system? Intriguing paper.
If anything the paper has 800+ refs!

As much as I would love this, our pesky allegiance to the idea of “freedom of choice” would make such a proposition dead in the water in USA, bc ppl would argue that they have the “right or freedom not to vote.”
An Australian scholar explains the idea that drove Australia to adopt compulsory voting: "You would know that the government that was elected had the support of the majority of voters in the electorate—not just the majority of the people who turned up."

There are many approaches to an Engineering education, & some universities are including AI tools in their curricula. But in this handbook, Vahe explains a more wholistic & broader "End-to-End" approach. It includes more security, robotics, & other key topics.

Ngl I would choose downloading my consciousness to a computer. Digital immortality, unless I get deleted. But I would be the type to get copies of myself just in case 😂
Would you rather be put into a Deep Cryosleep until science finds a way to keep you alive or your consciousness downloaded into a computer?

The only organization that everyone views favorably is Mothers Against Drunk Driving. What I do find funny is that everyone hates the Klan equally
Mothers Against Drunk Driving is viewed more favorably than unfavorably by Americans overall; Black Lives Matter, "Antifa," Moms for Liberty, and Turning Point USA are viewed more divisively.
