Nevada means snow
Las Vegas is meadows
Florida is named after La Florida, or the flowery one

California is actually from Spanish literature but is derived from Khalifa in Arabic, meaning “caliph” or leader. Note the closeness to Caliphate lol
San Diego, San Francisco, San Antonio, are Spanish Catholic saints.
Sacramento means sacrament
Colorado means colored with a red tint
Texas is Tejas, named by Mexicans from the Cado Native American word taysha
El Paso is “the pass” referring to the mountain pass along the Rio Grande (big river)
I could go on…
Trump will stay busy renaming and making the U.S. basic and boring like the food without ethnic spice. Pretty fitting for this administration. 🤡
Germans will stare at you in public transport as if they wanted to feed off from the pain in your eyes

This
Nobody talks about this side of AI.
I think it's making life 10x worse for people who tend to overthink.
You can now go down a rabbit hole that would never have existed without AI.
Example: You’re worried about a small injury.
You ask AI. It gives you 5 things to watch out for. So you ask about those 5 things. It gives you 10 more. You ask about those too. And every answer gives you another reason to keep digging.
It never ends because AI never runs out of answers.
And because it sounds like it knows everything, evry answer feels important. Every new possibility feels like something you should worry about.
It reminds me of social media in the 2010s.
At first, it was something that connected everyone. It took years to understand that it could also make people feel more lonely.
AI is just starting to reach everyone, and I see people getting anxious because of a conversation they had with ChatGPT.
I think we’ll discover a lot of side effects like this over the next decade.
