We lose cognitive function with age largely because adults refuse to be bad at things, and so stop giving the brain the novel input that maintains it.

What Tommy Wood actually said

  1. Tommy Wood Associate professor at the University of Washington
    potentially one of the reasons why we lose lose cognitive function as we get older is because we stop giving our brain novel inputs or complex inputs that help maintain function, drive neuroplasticity. And I think one of the reasons that that happens is because adults hate being bad at things, right?
