  • Meh, it just says new exam was introduces and a lot of students failed. This just means the schools are not good at preparing students for this exam, not that they don’t prepare for practicing medicine. I would say it’s normal that universities will need time to adapt their courses to the requirements of the exams. Maybe students are not well prepared for the format or maybe the just need to put greater focus on different parts of the curriculum. I don’t think this means that graduates are somehow less prepared, just that the new exam is another barrier for them to begin practice which means it will slow down induction of new doctors into the workforce. Hopefully they will adapt fast and this will not have any long term repercussions.











  • Whether or not all religions are equally useless for truth and morality is a big and absolute statement. I can’t say that I agree or disagree because I’m not familiar with every religion.

    I don’t think you have to know all religions to be able to say that. You just need to know what religion is and how it works. Religion can’t be the source of truth because it’s based on faith, not truth. If you look for truth without any dogma restricting your research you’re a scientists, not a theologian. Religion can’t be the source or morality because it’s goal is to enrich and empower the people that control it, not to teach anything useful. If you teach about morality without demanding obedience and money from your followers you’re a philosopher, not a religious leader.







  • Definitely not everyone. We’re talking about users that have a single chat open and have endless conversations about personal topics there. I think majority of users will ask single question or have a short conversation and then create new chat. And don’t talk about personal problems. We’re also talking about people with specific metal issues. AI is a terrible for many reasons but I think “it helps people kill themselves” is exaggerated. Before AI people were getting sucked into online communities that were encouraging suicide but the media barely noticed the issue. Marijuana is very dangerous for people with predisposition to some mental issues like schizophrenia but we just agree that people should have that in mind if they are going to use it. It’s the same with AI. Some people shouldn’t be using it but it’s not a reason for a total ban. The reason for a total ban is that it’s bad for environment, jobs and education and offers little benefits.
