  • Silence vs Music for focus… Music wins (but maybe it should not).

  • Little signs that Chat GPT (or another AI) wrote your article.

    Hello, fellow bloggers. We all have seen how AI has taken over almost every virtual space available, and blogs are no exception. Many people felt that Chat GPT meant the end for blogs, but others (such as Jatin Bansal) kept an optimistic perspective and considered that it was just another tool that could help us…
