In 2017, Yazd, a city in the desert of central Iran, was recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Yazd has long been a focal point for creative inventiveness. It is home to an underground refrigeration
structure called yakchat and an underground irrigation system called qanats. In addition, the city has the
wind catcher, a cooling architectural element that has been used for thousands of years. And it has the most
windcatchersintheworld.

Some of the earliest wind-catching technology came from Egypt 3,300 years ago. Here, buildings had

known as malqaf architecture. Iran’s wind-catching technology is widely considered to have added structural

Dear boss — You have always tried to attract young consumers, and our consultants have always come
up with new ways to label them. The trouble is that coming up with rules to define a group of humanity is
more art than science. It is likely to become an exercise in applying stereotypes; not every youngster is
drinking kombucha in a Brooklyn storehouse. Luckily you have me, and I’m here to tell you that much of
whatiswrittenaboutmarketingtotoday’smostprizedconsumersisamyth.
Startwith theideathat, glued tosmartphones,youngsters barelynoticethephysical worldandpassively
followthelatest hit fromInstagram or TikTok. It’s true thatthe daysofmarketing chieflythrough television,
newspapers and magazines are long gone. However, social media has not just changed the ways people
discover brands; it has weakened the power of marketing as a whole. Online, talk is cheap and prices are
readily Googled. Digital natives, therefore, can easily fact-check our suspicious marketing claims and ads.
Surveys suggest that young Americans are among the most price-sensitive food shoppers, even though they
haveaccumulatedlesswealththanearliergenerationshadbythesameage.
There is a similar urge to think that physical shops no longer matter. Young consumers love their
Amazon deliveries. It makes sense for our company to make sales via social media and ship directly to
customers’homes.Butwhatworksbestis thecloseintegrationof thedigitalandphysical worlds.Remember
those online-only beauty brands like Glossier, which took the world by storm during the pandemic. It turns
out that they struggle to get repeat business and have had to pair up with physical shops. What really matters
is avoiding insincerity. Dishonesty is easily exposed online, where everyone loves a takedown. Remember

In a new study, Iowa Psychologist Ed Wasserman gave the pigeons complex categorization tests that
high-level thinking would not aid in solving. Instead, the pigeons, by trial and error, eventually were able to
memorizeenoughsituationsinthetest.Thisbasicprocessofmakingassociations—consideredalower-level

The researchers sought to figure out two types of learning: one declarative learning, is based on

bypeople.Theother,associativelearning,centersonrecognizingandmakingconnectionsbetweenobjectsor
patterns,suchas“sky-blue”and“water-wet.”
Wasserman’s team designed a difficult test to find out whether the pigeons use declarative or
associative learning. Each test pigeon was shown a stimulus (刺激)and had to decide, by pecking (啄) a

“The pigeons are like AI masters” Wasserman says. “Both of them employ associative learning, and
yet that base-level thinking is what allowed the pigeons to ultimately score successfully.” If people were to
take the same test, they’d score poorly and would probably give up because they rely so heavily on rules or
strategies. Those rules would get in the way of learning. The pigeon doesn’t have that high-level thinking

The ChatGPT in its name stands for “generative pre-trainedtransformer”, 58 is a particular kind of

59 (feed) huge amounts of human-created text, ChatGPT looks for statistical regularities in this data,

next in any given sentence and 61 sentences fit together. The result is a machine that can persuasively
mimic(模仿)humanlanguage.
This capacity 62 mimicry allows ChatGPT to write essays and poetry, think up jokes, formulate
code, and answer questions whether to a child or an expert. Its performance is so astonishing 63 many
over the past months have been both celebrating and panicking. “Essays are dead,” wrote the cognitive
