A new $236 billion industry, the “super agent economy,” is rapidly emerging. Unlike AI tools that merely generate content, AI agents are autonomous “invisible employees” that can plan and execute complex tasks on their own by connecting to other applications and tools. This represents a ground-floor opportunity, as 81% of companies are still in the […]

This video reframes procrastination in individuals with ADHD not as laziness, but as “ADHD paralysis”—a neurological state caused by a lack of dopamine.

If anxiety and the inability to disconnect from work persist for more than […]

Researchers at Boston University have developed an Artificial Intelligence (AI) model that can predict the likelihood of a person with mild cognitive impairment developing Alzheimer’s disease. This new approach offers a simple, non-invasive method for early risk assessment, with the potential to be integrated into everyday technology like smartphones. Key Findings: AI-Powered Prediction The central […]

This video argues that conventional passive stretching is ineffective for building long-term flexibility. The core message is that true flexibility is not achieved by lengthening muscles, but by building strength at the end of your range of motion, a process that is faster, more effective, and creates lasting results with minimal maintenance.
