So hopefully, you know, with AI and with the changes that we're seeing, we'll be able to do a little bit of change to that as well.

Yeah.

I'm actually excited about where AI is going to help us as educators.

So, you know, one of the things that anyone who's worked at a medium to large size university has experienced is standing up in front of a classroom of students 50, 100, 300 students.

I taught an online class at one point that had several hundred students in it.

And if you're going to engage with that many students, then using more traditional methods of education you're going to pitch to about a third of the class.

And the bottom third of that class is probably going to be lost.

You know, for a university, you know, there are some challenges, of course, and you've spoken to me before about that wonderful turn of phrase, which is the faculty immune response, right? So how do you think, actually, you know, you can get, you know, the faculty, you said that, you know, you're seeing some changes, but how do we get more of them on board, I guess, with this type of world?

What is that?

So there's several reasons actually that come together for why time feels like it goes faster as you get older.

One of them is that a lot of what makes time feel slow is that your brain, when your brain is doing a lot of work to understand a situation, then in the moment, your brain has to, y- y- is, is going to, to create lots of memories that will, when you look back on it, become these landmarks that feel like t- a lot of time has passed.

Now, when you're young, everything is new, and so your brain is constantly doing lots of work in order to, uh, to, to, to, uh, understand the situation, and that influences your sense of the passage of time.

As you get older, more and more of your life becomes routine.

More and more of your life becomes predictable, and as a result, your, your brain is laying down fewer and fewer landmarks that make the time feel like it's gone slowly.

And that's one of the reasons why a great way to slow time down is to take up new skills, to learn how to play an instrument or a new sport or something like that or to, uh, expose yourself to new classes.

One of the interesting questions you look at is why do we, why do we buy what we buy? And a- and I think most people would think, "Well, you know, I, I, I'm a smart guy, and I sit down and I make a decision of, or I'm gonna buy this and not that because I'm a logical, thoughtful guy." And you're gonna probably tell me that's not [laughs], that's not how we do it.
