"Exploring the intersection of #AI and human potential. Can #GenerativeAI help us achieve a state of #Flow, that sweet spot of total absorption where we lose track of time and produce our best work? Let's dive into the possibilities. #CognitiveScience #ArtificialIntelligence" Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi  Wikipedia Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (1934-2021) was a HungarianAmerican psychologist who is best known for his work on the concept of "flow".

  Curiosity can be seen as a malleable skill that can be trained through teaching specific practices. One of the most important inquiry strategies to be trained is question-asking.  The study, GPT-3-driven pedagogical agents for training children’s curious question-asking skills, suggests that enhancing one’s curiosity-driven learning should focus on training the awareness of missing information and the appropriate inquiry strategies to compensate for it.  The study proposes a "prompt-based" method for generating pedagogical content using a large language model (LLM) that can automate the production of questions and answers. The LLM can be used to generate questions that are designed to pique the curiosity of children and encourage them to ask more questions. The study found that the output of the automated content generation was comparable to hand-generated content in terms of quality and effectiveness in promoting curiosity-driven learning.  However,  the auth...
