The people who would have been gifted before, remain gifted, and those who would not have been gifted, continue not to be. I would argue that the answer is “yes,” because Generative AI uniquely is doing some of the higher-level cognitive work, not merely the lower-level supportive cognitive work that supports the higher-level cognitive work. 16:1498132. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2025.1498132, PubMed Abstract | Crossref Full Text | Google ScholarKlingbeil, A., Grützner, C., and Schreck, P.

AFC Henley over 50s maintained their Oxfordshire Veterans League promotion push with a solid 4-2 home win last Sunday. A blistering first half performance saw Henley race into a 3-0 lead. The second goal arrived when the league’s top scorer, Costa Onisor, rounded the goalkeeper following a through ball by Ian Plumpton. The second half was a much more open affair with the linesman’s flag denying Onisor a second goal. The visitors’ second goal gave them renewed energy and Henley saw the game through with a battling last15 minutes.

On a typical January morning, the Riverside Surgery feels unusually calm for a practice serving 24,000 patients across five sites. Many of us have come to dread the 8am rush to secure a GP appointment, but things are done very differently here. Dr Chinenye Ekpeh, a GP partner, is on duty. "It's about knowing who needs to be seen immediately, who needs to be seen today and minimising risks," Ekpeh says. "If someone needs to come in, we bring them in."

To celebrate, we have compiled a gallery of red squirrel shots from across Cumbria and the surrounding regions, click the main article image to view. The Red Squirrel Survival Trust celebrate the appreciation day, which aims to raise awareness of the plight of red squirrels in the UK and the actions being undertaken for their conservation. Cumbria is one of the last counties in England where red squirrels still survive in the wild. In 2024, the Keswick area saw numerous outbreaks of the fatal virus in red squirrel communities, each time seemingly wiping out most or all of the reds close by. Volunteer groups across Cumbria often head into the woods at first light, in all weathers, to monitor feeders, record sightings and humanely manage grey populations.

The Canadian Prime Minister’s argument tempered brutal realism— “we are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition” —with optimism. Carney was better placed than anyone in the world to have delivered such a speech. As Governor of the Bank of England, he watched as Britain committed what he privately considered to be a monumental act of stupidity with Brexit. Complementarities are positive sums.”What is depressing is that it is almost impossible to imagine Keir Starmer or any other British political leader delivering such a speech, even assuming they understood the arguments. Besides, in his decade at the front rank of UK politics, Starmer has never delivered a single notable speech.

In fact, up until recently, the little information I knew about birth control had steered me away from it entirely. But, as I have learned more, I have become increasingly aware of the casual misinformation that permeates every casual conversation about birth control and contraceptives. Hormonal birth control prevents the ovaries from releasing an egg via one of a variety of available hormonal combinations. Studies that account for missed or forgotten pills tell us that hormonal birth control is about 93% effective. In comparison, the practical effectiveness rates of other birth control methods are lower: such as the cervical cap after giving birth (71%), the pull-out method (78%), the birth control sponge after giving birth (78%), internal condoms (79%), spermicide (79%), the diaphragm (83%), the birth control sponge before giving birth (86%), the cervical cap before giving birth (86%), external condoms (87%), the vaginal ring (93%), the birth control patch (93%), and the birth control shot (96%).

Liverpool appear to open the scoring with what would’ve been an excellent counterattacking goal. Dominik Szoboszlai scores his second free kick of the season! It wasn’t a great half from the Reds, but they did look the most likely to score and managed to get their reward just before the halftime whistle. Hugo nearly scores again, this time rattling a great chance off the crossbar. This game has really opened up here in the second half, and is much more end-to-end than it was in the cagey first half.

This is the reality, with the club currently down to three fit senior centre halves including captain Virigil van Dijk, soon to be out of contract Ibrahima Konate, and injury-prone Joe Gomez. Meanwhile, chatter out of Germany further suggests his wage demands are seen as excessive by Bayern Munich and as such he isn’t a target despite being one of the nation’s top centre halves and a regular in the national team. In addition to Liverpool, Manchester United and Tottenham have been linked. From a Liverpool point of view, Schlotterbeck checks the boxes as a centre half who could replace Konate in the lineup if the French international moves on this summer when his contract expires. Whether that makes their interest genuine or just rumour monger chatter is, for now, a different question.
