BALTIMORE, MD, April 1, 2025 – Can we really trust AI to make better decisions than humans? A new study says … not always. Researchers have discovered that OpenAI’s ChatGPT, one of the most advanced and popular AI models, makes the same kinds of decision-making mistakes as humans in some situations – showing biases like overconfidence of hot-hand (gambler’s) fallacy – yet acting inhuman in others (e.g., not suffering from base-rate neglect or sunk cost fallacies).

Thousands of smartphones and smart devices are talking to, sending and downloading vast amounts of data, video, audio, words, numbers, images, you name it.

Not even a year after SARS-CoV-2 was first identified, several coronavirus vaccines are now in the final stages of testing. Some people worry we’re moving too fast; others argue that “Operation Warp Speed” is not moving nearly fast enough.

Election Day 2020 feels a lot like it did in 2016 -- early results are still showing it could be a toss-up between current US President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden, however, Trump is shown to be behind. There was a similar situation in 2016, but when Donald Trump was declared the winner of the Presidential elections that year, nearly everyone was shocked, except perhaps, Allan Lichtman, a historian who has taught at American University in Washington, DC since 1973. Lichtman correctly predicted that Trump would be the 45th President and went on to state that Trump would also be impeached.
