Justin R. Lester breaks down a study showing AI models trained on viral social media content develop worse reasoning, less empathy, and antisocial traits. He uses it as a warning: endless scrolling does the same thing to your brain.
Researchers just released a wild study saying AI models are literally getting brain rot from viral social media content. Their reasoning accuracy drops. Their empathy fades.

Our souls can't handle constant noise without consequence. Protect your mind, guard your scroll, feed your spirit more than your timeline like and follow for more.
