Creatix / January 5, 2026 Greed is usually described as a moral failure, a character flaw shared by people with questionable values. Neuroscience frames a nuanced picture. The brain is not an evil machine. It is a predictive and regulatory organ shaped by hundreds of millions of years of blind evolution in the wild. Brains evolved in painful worlds characterized by limitations and scarcity. The modern world is different and we have created vast abundance and ultra fast communication leading to potentially unlimited wants and comparisons. To understand greed a little better, we have to understand how the brain experiences desire. The Brain Evolved Rewarding The Chase At the center of greed is dopamine, a neurochemical that used to be mislabeled as the “pleasure molecule.” Dopamine does not generate happiness, much less contentment. It generates pursuit. It pushes us forward and sharpens our focus as it energizes us toward a goal within apparent reach. When we imagine a future reward (pl...

Creatix / January 3, 2026 Artificial intelligence (AI) is the field of science and engineering dedicated to creating machines that can perceive, learn, reason, and act in ways that normally require human intelligence. In practical terms, AI systems recognize images and speech, generate text and video, discover patterns in data, and increasingly make decisions or take actions in the real world. A Brief History of AI: From the 1950s to the 2020s AI as a formal discipline will turn 70 years old in 2026. It traces its origin to the 1956 Dartmouth Summer Research Project on Artificial Intelligence , where researchers first proposed that “every aspect of learning or intelligence can in principle be so precisely described that a machine can be made to simulate it.” That optimistic claim launched decades of experimentation. Progress came in waves: 1950s–1970s: Symbolic AI and rule-based systems dominated. Computers could follow explicit logic but struggled with ambiguity. 1980s–1990s: Expert...

Creatix / January 1, 2026 Our deepest condolences to the loved ones of the victims. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.   Yesterday, we published an article about the Top Disasters of 2025 . It was an invitation to be grateful for surviving 2025 because not everyone was that fortunate. We mentioned the unfortunate fact that tragedies and disasters will continue in 2026.  However, we were not expecting that only hours into the new year, 2026 has already recorded its first major tragedy. The devastating fire at a Swiss ski resort, meant to be a place of escape, celebration, and winter joy, stands as a sobering reminder of how fragile life remains, even in societies known for safety, prosperity, and preparedness. What should have been a night of laughter and new beginnings became instead a scene of chaos, loss, and mourning. At Creatix, we remain unapologetic optimists. This article is not written to darken the start of a new year, but to continue counting our blessi...

Creatix / December 31, 2025 Human Loss, Environmental Damage, and the Cost of a Fragile World If you get to see year 2026, consider yourself blessed and lucky. Not everyone shares the same luck. As every other year, in addition to all the wonderful things that happened in 12 months, there are regrettable tragedies and disasters. Some are caused directly by nature and some are caused by humans either disregarding nature or falling trap of our own nature.  The year 2025, as all others, can be remembered as one marked by extreme human suffering, environmental destruction, and staggering economic losses. If you know Creatix, we are super optimists so don't take this article as a reason to feel down. To some extent is part of counting our blessings and fostering gratitude for being alive and well. Others were not as fortunate and we should think about them and their loved ones. From large-scale wars to climate-driven disasters, the tragedies of the year revealed how vulnerable modern so...
