BALTIMORE, MD, April 1, 2025 – Can we really trust AI to make better decisions than humans? A new study says … not always. Researchers have discovered that OpenAI’s ChatGPT, one of the most advanced and popular AI models, makes the same kinds of decision-making mistakes as humans in some situations – showing biases like overconfidence of hot-hand (gambler’s) fallacy – yet acting inhuman in others (e.g., not suffering from base-rate neglect or sunk cost fallacies).

NORTH CAROLINA – Roughly four months into the worst public health crisis of our lifetime, experts say we're still in the beginning. "I think we're maybe coming to the end of chapter one," says Dr. Paul Delamater, assistant professor at UNC Chapel Hill. The health geographer launched N.C. COVID-19 earlier this month. It's a website with models focused solely on North Carolina. "You don't want to say things look good because people are still transmitting coronavirus. People are still being hospitalized.

Good morning. It has been nearly a year since the Business Roundtable released its statement of corporate purpose, putting the interests of employees, customers, communities and the environment on equal footing with shareholders.The change found widespread acceptance among leaders of Fortune 500 companies, and even among investors.
