Gold can be a solid bet in uncertain times

Investors have historically turned to gold because of its stability. Gold can act like a safety net in your portfolio because its value tends to stay afloat – even when the stock market dives. It’s also considered a hedge against inflation, meaning its value can rise as the buying power of cash goes down.

Check out our list of top-rated Gold IRA providers, including some that offer educational materials for gold-investing beginners.

Study Finds People Favor ChatGPT's Verses Over Shakespeare's

A recent study found that AI-generated poems are not only seen as more beautiful but also easier to understand than classics by literary giants like Shakespeare and Byron.

Details:

• Over 78% of study participants gave higher average ratings to AI-generated poems than to those written by renowned poets, even rating them more favorably in qualities such as rhythm and beauty.

• When participants were unaware of the origin of the poems, AI-generated works were favored. However, when informed, the preference shifted, with AI poems being rated lower.

• The study highlighted that people struggled to distinguish between AI and human-written poems. AI poems were mistakenly identified as human-written 58.5% of the time, while actual human poems were correctly identified only 51.7% of the time.

Dr. Brian Porter noted that AI-generated poems were preferred because they were easier to grasp in a single reading, making them more appealing for quick consumption. However, he believes people still want poems to be written by a human who is "trying to communicate something to you."
