Recent research shows that students who write essays by cutting and pasting AI content do not remember what they write only minutes later. I.e the information stays at a surface level and evaporates almost immediately. Same goes for presidential briefings. He is driven by id. He does not engage with complexity.He wings it and now he has sycophants who will back whatever he says last. We are playing Russian roulette. Stop taking his behavior as a logical process. He cannot be predicted. The best that we can do is plan back-stops to clean up on aisle 7.
