## Resource

News and Updates: • Research shows AI boosts creativity only for employees with strong metacognition—the ability to plan and refine thinking—allowing them to strategically expand knowledge and capacity. • Discord will implement global age verification in March, defaulting all users to ”teen-appropriate” settings unless they prove adulthood via ID, facial estimation, or behavioral metadata. • Ring’s ”Search Party” feature uses AI neighborhood camera scans to find lost dogs, sparking privacy fears that the infrastructure could eventually be used for human surveillance. • Goldman Sachs is embedding Anthropic engineers to build autonomous AI agents for high-volume back-office roles, specifically targeting complex trade accounting and regulatory compliance tasks. • OpenAI’s Sam Altman lashed out at Anthropic’s ”dishonest” Super Bowl ads, which mocked ChatGPT’s upcoming ad tier by depicting intrusive, context-twisting product placements in conversations.
