AI (Dall-E 2) prompt: An average human in average circumstances. The results are just weird.

Health/Wellness

I had AI summarize the top twenty health/diet books, and then asked which concept was most universally agreed upon.  The answer?  “Prioritize nutrient dense foods”. 

“It involves choosing foods that provide the maximum amount of nutrients with the minimum number of calories, ensuring a balanced and varied intake of essential nutrients”.  Hard to beat that! 

Runners up: #2 avoiding processed foods and #3 eating mindfully.

Money

I was cleaning up some old files when I came across an article I filed in May 2021 calling out 12 strategies to protect against inflation.  The results, 2.5 years later?  Not good.  Especially the lead idea, called “the most solid insurance plan” – inflation protected securities…which actually went down since the post.  Always remember that very few investment strategies work out the way they are supposed to in theory.

Before the industrial revolution, silver didn’t need to be polished, because there was less sulfur in the atmosphere.
