In this episode, we explore the ways in which AI software, specifically ChatGPT, is having a great impact on education, the workplace, and our everyday lives. We delve into the specific ways in which ChatGPT is able to assist individuals with executive function issues, such as providing reminders and prompts, assisting with decision-making, and helping to manage time and tasks. We also discuss how AI is being used to support individuals with other learning difficulties, such as dyslexia and ADHD.We also look toward the future and explore how AI technology is likely to evolve in the coming years. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the intersection of AI and cognitive function, and the potential for technology to support those with learning difficulties.LinksChatGPT-https://chat.openai.com/chat Dall-E-https://openai.com/product/dall-e-2  Jasper AI-https://www.jasper.ai/  Synthesia-https://www.synthesia.io/ Tome-https://tomi.ai/ Do not Pay-https://donotpay.com/ Grammarly-https://app.grammarly.com/ WordTune-https://www.wordtune.com/ Revery-https://www.revery.ai/ Dyslexia Quiz: ⁠⁠https://bulletmapacademy.com/dyslexia-quiz/⁠⁠Dyslexia Productivity Coaching: ⁠⁠http://dyslexiaproductivitycoaching.com/⁠⁠Cognitive Flexibility:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://goodsensorylearning.com/blogs/news/dyslexia-and-executive-function Dyslexia Quiz: ⁠⁠https://bulletmapacademy.com/dyslexia-quiz/⁠⁠Inhibitory Control:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://goodsensorylearning.com/blogs/news/poor-executive-functioning?_pos=3&_sid=19d2b3888&_ss=r Visualization:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://goodsensorylearning.com/blogs/news/the-key-to-improved-attention-and-memory-for-optimal-learning?_pos=8&_sid=a9d61809a&_ss=r Inner Voice:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://goodsensorylearning.com/blogs/news/inner-voice-app?_pos=1&_sid=604e0b13e&_ss=r Working Memory:https://goodsensorylearning.com/blogs/news/tagged/working-memory Brought to you by:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ivvi.app⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://goodsensorylearning.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://learningspecialistcourses.com⁠⁠⁠⁠https://goodsensorylearning.com/products/executive-functioning-coaching-assessment⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://dropintoyourbestself.com/www.learningtolearn.bizhttps://dropintoyourbestself.com/

In this episode, Darius and Erica discuss the relationship between goals to executive functioning and how to make and execute them.We all know the importance of setting goals, but it would be intriguing and meaningful to see how our EF skills can help us or hinder us in making or achieving goals.Working MemoryHow can working memory affect goal setting?Darius’s little notes every morning on his goals for reminders‘50 First Dates’ movie about having amnesia.About remembering everything importantIdentifyClarifyRememberConscious decision to remind yourselfvisual blinkersverbal blinkersHow to make a goalBreaking goals into micro or mini goals   - Manage little chunks   - Not get used to the adrenaline boost of the last minute (like an addiction)   - The drama triangleWriting goals in the past tense   - Vision boardsMaking goal visual/spatial   - Feel what it feels like to achieve your goals   - Create a map     - Establishes a pathway     - Routemap of successUse AI or social media algorithms to help us change our focus visually and verbally   - Social media algorithm that you can choose to work with us.The drama triangle- three actorsVictimRescuerPersecutorStep out of the drama triangleHow does Darius make a goal:The power of writing goals in the past tenseLinksAlan Baddeley’s Model of Working Memory:https://study.com/academy/lesson/baddeleys-model-of-working-memory.html 50 First Dates movie:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/50_First_Dates The Drama Triangle:https://leadershiptribe.com/the-drama-triangle-explained Tiktok algorithm:https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2022/oct/23/tiktok-rise-algorithm-popularity  Vision boards:https://www.oprahdaily.com/life/a29959841/how-to-make-a-vision-board/ Eclectic Learning Approach and Student Processing Inventory:https://goodsensorylearning.com/products/student-processing-inventory-2?_pos=2&_sid=bb241d1c7&_ss=r⁠⁠ A Workshop on Multisensory Teaching: Accommodating Each Learner's Best Ways of Processing: ⁠⁠https://www.learningspecialistcourses.com/courses/multisensory-learning-workshop Executive Functioning Remedial Assessment: https://goodsensorylearning.com/search?type=product&q=EFCA⁠  One-to-one sessions with Dr. Warren:https://learningtolearn.biz/ One-to-one sessions with Darius:www.ivvi.appBulletMap Academy:https://bulletmapacademy.com/Learning Specialist Courses:https://www.learningspecialistcourses.com/Executive Functions and Study Skills Course:https://www.learningspecialistcourses.com/courses/teaching-EF-and-study-strategies Good Sensory Learning:https://goodsensorylearning.com/Dyslexia Quiz: ⁠⁠https://bulletmapacademy.com/dyslexia-quiz/⁠⁠Dyslexia Productivity Coaching: ⁠⁠http://dyslexiaproductivitycoaching.com/⁠⁠Cognitive Flexibility:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://goodsensorylearning.com/blogs/news/dyslexia-and-executive-function Dyslexia Quiz: ⁠⁠https://bulletmapacademy.com/dyslexia-quiz/⁠⁠Inhibitory Control:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://goodsensorylearning.com/blogs/news/poor-executive-functioningMetacognition:https://goodsensorylearning.com/blogs/news/teaching-metacognitive-skillsVisualization:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://goodsensorylearning.com/blogs/news/the-key-to-improved-attention-and-memory-for-optimal-learningInner Voice:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://goodsensorylearning.com/blogs/news/inner-voice-appWorking Memory:https://goodsensorylearning.com/blogs/news/tagged/working-memory Brought to you by:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ivvi.app⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://goodsensorylearning.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://learningspecialistcourses.com⁠⁠⁠⁠https://goodsensorylearning.com/products/executive-functioning-coaching-assessment⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://dropintoyourbestself.com/www.learningtolearn.biz https://dropintoyourbestself.com/

Darius and Erica discuss how creating a mindful daily practice can rewire subconscious patterns that aren't serving us.What is the subconscious? The subconscious is part of your mind that notices and remembers information when you are not actively trying to do so, and influences your behavior even though you do not realize it.  Sub-conscious - below thought or awareness (automatic pilot)Taking control of the subconscious - decide what is subconscious. Plant new seeds in our subconscious.  Reticular activating system - metacognition.
