Esmé Partridge in First Things digs into the AI revolution. Proponents argue it fosters wisdom by liberating us from distracting, menial tasks. Partridge counters by drawing on Plato’s warning that any technology that remembers or thinks on our behalf stifles our ascent to truth.

Palestinian Culture: Unique in its Own Destructive Way
Although the Palestinian Authority enjoys an array of cultural departments and programs, A.J. Caschetta in Jewish World Review finds that all of it – art, education, literature, poetry, music, education and film – is oriented to two goals: the vilification of Jews and the destruction of Israel. Caschetta notes this is in sharp contrast to Arab and Muslim traditions, which include myriad aesthetically normal cultural works. Palestinianism, Caschetta finds, is “a very sick culture”, driven by resentment and fuelled by hate.
