The article shows why I don’t trust chatbots with mental health: even the therapists quoted say AI should only be a supplement, not a substitute, and the piece documents cases where bots mishandled suicidal ideation. It’s telling that states have started banning or restricting “AI therapy,” and that researchers found some bots literally listed New York bridges when a user hinted at self-harm—proof that safety breaks exactly when it matters most. A real clinician can read body language, tone, and silence; as one therapist in the story puts it, “the actual relationship with another person is where good work happens.” The article itself concedes as much when a therapist warns he “strongly dissuades patients from attempting to diagnose themselves with any mental health condition using AI,” because humans integrate nonverbal cues that bots miss. Yes, journaling with a bot may feel helpful at 2 a.m., but that convenience shouldn’t replace the accountability and care of talking to trained people who can intervene responsibly. Bottom line: for mental health, I’m against AI chatbots; talk to real humans.

Wearing Even Realities’ $599 smart glasses, the reporter finds the tech useful for quick tasks like on-the-fly translation, prompts, and notifications, but the bigger story is social. People repeatedly ask if they’re being recorded—even though these glasses have no cameras—and conversations often turn awkward. Highly reflective waveguides make bystanders think the wearer is reading something, so friends and even family feel ignored.The piece argues that discomfort isn’t irrational, since microphones and growing camera-glasses in general raise real privacy worries. Still, the author notes this may ease if the devices become common, as tech firms push AR eyewear from Meta and Google toward everyday use. As he puts it, “Like it or not, Big Tech is coming for our glasses,” and “it’s going to take some getting used to.”

Tech companies are blanketing people with prompts to try AI because, as the piece puts it, “It’s annoying, but it works.” OpenAI pushes Atlas inside ChatGPT, Perplexity dangles pop-ups for free article access, and even Samsung TVs flash on-screen nudges for AI assistants. The article says firms use two distribution plays: leverage their own popular platforms to insert AI suggestions, or pay partners to preinstall and spotlight their tools. This echoes old “junkware” tactics and intersects with a recent ruling that Google’s search distribution deals amounted to an illegal monopoly—even as some payments were allowed to continue. Because habits around search and browsers are hard to break, the story argues winners may be decided more by placement than product quality. And as Firefox’s Anthony Enzor-DeMeo warns, “The fight for distribution is going to be pretty key in the next couple of years.”

I think AI in sports will have a negative impact because it takes away the human side of the game that makes it exciting. The Washington Post said that MLB’s new ball-strike challenge system takes about “17 seconds,” and even though that’s quick, it still slows things down and changes the flow. I believe that rational decisions are a part of the game. I also don’t think other sports, like the NFL, should bring in AI to fix human errors, because the mistakes and arguments are part of what makes sports fun to watch. If AI gets too involved, games could start to feel robotic and less real. When it comes to jobs, I believe AI will start making a big impact before 2030. I also think people underestimate how many jobs AI can do, because it’s not just in tech, it could take over customer service, driving, and even some parts of healthcare.

I’m pro AI because it makes life easier, and like The Washington Post said, “wages of workers with AI skills were 56 percent higher than those without.” There are already so many people and businesses that use AI to create profit. I do not think we will see AI fully take over ever, I believe we as humans will always be superior to AI. I do expect insane growth before 2030 since it’s already moving so fast. I don’t think it will ever plateau, there will always be new discoveries and improvements. A lot of people are already training in AI to keep up, which shows how big it is becoming. It is not perfect now, but it’s only going to get more useful. Overall, AI is going to keep growing and changing the way we live and work.
