A message from the Editors:

As the World Intelligence Network approaches its quarter of a century of existence, and the magazine reaches its thirtieth edition, the editors wish to salute the people who have contributed over the years, and in particular, the many regulars in the latest ‘Phenomenon’.

As a ‘doff of a psychologist’s cap’ to our founder, Dr. Evangelos Katsioulis, Canadian journalist Scott Douglas Jacobsen supplies superb interview content with two world-class psychologists: Professor Steven Pinker and Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman.

Another superlative contributor is the artist and visionary, Anja Jaenicke. Anja Jaenicke is one of three World Genius Directory Genius of the Year for Europe winners mentioned in this edition, and it is always a delight when Anja’s paintings arrive in the post.

Significantly, as we venture towards a world dominated by Artificial Intelligence, it seems only right to include Chat GPT contributions, my particular usage of it reassuring me that my poetry actually states what I intended it to say, though, of course, one of the advantages that we, as humans, retain at the moment, is the ability to “read and dream,” as W. B. Yeats put it. It is a moot point where we will be in 25 years’ time.

Whatever, Krystal Volney and I wish you continued creative and intellectual joy, and we acknowledge the invaluable contribution of a fellow editor (and, indeed, much more) Dr. Iona Italia.

Regards,

Graham Powell
