According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, boys are about three times more likely to be diagnosed as autistic than girls are. Scientists have sought an answer as to why that imbalance exists: some have argued it is to do with male and female brains; others have proposed that genetic differences or some other biological factor could hold an answer. And there is evidence that some girls and women are misdiagnosed—or missed altogether.
But a new study involving millions of people in Sweden shows women and men are almost equally as likely to be diagnosed with autism by adulthood—suggesting younger girls may be underdiagnosed and possibly missing out on critical care.
Scientists followed 2.7 million children born in Sweden between 1985 and 2020, about 2.8 percent of whom had been diagnosed as autistic by 2022. In early childhood, boys were much more likely to receive an autism diagnosis. But as the cohort aged, the researchers identified a “catch-up” effect—by age 20, women were almost just as likely to have received an autism diagnosis as men. The research was published in the BMJ.
The study is “interesting” and “well done,” says David Mandell, a professor of psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania, who points to the study’s 35-year period and extensive dataset.
Gina Rippon, a professor emeritus of cognitive neuroimaging at Aston University in England and author of the book The Lost Girls of Autism, agrees. The results are “powerful” and “sound,” Rippon says. “This is a really rigid, perhaps classically Scandinavian-type study, where the data is amazing data, collected over time, valid, reliable, etcetera.”
Indeed, because the study relied on clinical diagnoses, its findings may in fact be a “conservative” estimate of autism rates among women, she adds.
It’s not totally clear what may be driving the early diagnosis gap between boys and girls. One possibility is “systemic biases in diagnosis,” wrote patient and patient advocate Anne Cary in a related BMJ editorial. In other words, the way clinicians diagnose autism may be missing girls. Girls, “out of instinct or necessity,” may also be masking the condition.
And that has real consequences. Delayed diagnoses can mean that autistic people have to work harder to get the right treatment and may be misdiagnosed with conditions like anxiety or ADHD in the meantime.
Rippon says the new study may be a step toward correcting that legacy. “If this study does nothing other than indicate what is going on in the recognition of autistic women, then that will be great,” she says.
A 10-year-old Minnesota girl has been released from US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody after a month in detention in Dilley, Texas, school officials said, one of hundreds of children detained at the facility.
Elizabeth Zuna Caisaguano, a fourth-grader, and her mother walked free from the immigration detention center in Dilley, Texas, on Tuesday night. Elizabeth is a student in the school district of Columbia Heights, a Minneapolis suburb, which is also home to five-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos, who was released from Dilley over the weekend amid widespread outrage about his detention.
Elizabeth and her mother were taken by federal agents on 6 January, the first of five students from the Columbia Heights district to be detained by ICE during the Trump administration’s aggressive immigration crackdown in the region, school leaders said. The family, originally from Ecuador, has an active asylum case, school officials said.
The girl and her mother were at a Texas shelter as of Wednesday morning, a family attorney said, and would be heading back to Minnesota to reunite with her father.
There have been growing concerns about Elizabeth’s health as federal officials confirmed that Dilley, which houses families, is now the site of a measles outbreak. Hundreds of children are detained at the facility.
Carolina Gutierrez, principal secretary at Highland elementary, Elizabeth’s school, has been assisting the family and told the Guardian on Wednesday that the girl was experiencing flu-like symptoms and her mother had broken out in hives, but they had not yet received a medical assessment.
“I’m just excited to see Elizabeth come back to school. I’m extremely happy and relieved, and we have to continue advocating and speaking up for other people to come home,” Gutierrez said.
Elizabeth and her mother had been picked up by agents on the way to school, and the girl was able to call her father during the arrests, acting as an interpreter for her family and telling her dad that officers would drop her off at school, Gutierrez said.
The father has said he rushed to the elementary school and waited for hours with school staff, but Elizabeth never arrived. By the end of that day, Elizabeth and her mother had both already been flown to Texas. Tracy Xiong, a school social worker, recounted the episode at a press conference on Tuesday with Tim Walz, Minnesota’s governor, saying the father had been inconsolable after his family was picked up, according to the Sahan Journal, a local news outlet.
“That image of Elizabeth’s father will stay with me forever,” Xiong said. “I watched him sit in his car, bury his head in his hands, and cry uncontrollably.”
When Elizabeth was detained, she assumed she was being sent back to Ecuador, Gutierrez said: “When she was flown to Texas, she thought her dreams were over. She dreams of being a doctor. She’s pleaded with her dad: ‘Get me out of here. I want to go back home. I want to go back to school. I want to eat good food.’ … Mom and Dad didn’t understand why they were being treated like this. They were like, we didn’t do anything wrong.”
Gutierrez, who has been working with the father and raising funds for the family, said: “He has been sad and desperate for answers. He hasn’t been able to sleep. He doesn’t have an appetite. He felt very helpless.”
Elizabeth’s case was assigned to the US judge Fred Biery, who had ordered Liam’s release. The judge argued that the boy’s case “has its genesis in the ill-conceived and incompetently-implemented government pursuit of daily deportation quotas, apparently even if it requires traumatizing children”.

On Monday, Biery issued an order blocking the removal or transfer of Elizabeth and her mother and giving the federal government five days to respond to the family’s release petition.
Their sudden release the following day came as something of a surprise, said Bobby Painter, managing attorney with the Texas Immigration Law Council, a non-profit representing the family.
Elizabeth and her mother should never have been detained, he said: “This didn’t have to happen. This is a family going through the process as it was intended. They presented at the border as asylum seekers and were admitted to the country. That case is still ongoing. They did everything they were supposed to do and still found themselves detained and separated.”
Painter said Elizabeth was an “avid reader” and “really wants to get back into that routine”.
In the wake of growing backlash against the detention of Elizabeth, Liam, and other Minnesota students, including a two-year-old girl, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has said it gives arrested parents an opportunity to have their children detained with them or placed into the custody of another adult.
But Columbia Heights officials have countered that agents have made it difficult or impossible for parents to place their children with others during often chaotic arrests.
The DHS defended the detention of the girl in a statement, saying that after Elizabeth’s mother was arrested, “officers allowed her to make phone calls to place the child in the custody of someone she designated”. The DHS’s statement said: “She failed to find a trusted adult to care for the child, so officers kept the family together for the welfare of the child.”
That account is contradicted by the assertions of her family and school officials, who said the father was ready to take custody, and the DHS did not respond to questions about the discrepancies.
The DHS also said Elizabeth’s mother had a “final order of removal”. Painter disputed that characterization, saying one judge had denied asylum, but the family filed a timely appeal, which is still pending, meaning there is no final removal order.
Brian Todd, a spokesperson for CoreCivic, the private prison corporation that runs Dilley, declined to comment on Elizabeth’s case and the measles outbreak, saying in an email that CoreCivic has doctors and mental health professionals on staff who “meet the highest standards of care”. Dilley, Todd said, provides residents a “continuum of health care services, including screening, prevention, health education, diagnosis and treatment”.
Liam’s case received international attention after his photo went viral, but his case is not unique, advocates say.
ICE booked about 3,800 minors into immigrant family detention from January to October 2025, including children as young as one or two years old, according to a Guardian analysis of detention data.
“Family detention is very traumatic for children, even for relatively short periods,” Painter said. “Children should not be detained under any circumstances, period. The entire practice of family detention is immoral and bad policy, and I hope there is continued public attention on this until we don’t have any more kids in this position.”
Gutierrez said the community had stepped up to defend families, but that the detention of Elizabeth and others had taken a toll on families: “The trauma is following these kids into classrooms. The students fear for themselves and their classmates. Every day, they wonder if they are going to see their classmates tomorrow.”

In the long-running power struggle between the legislative and executive branches, a House Republican’s success this week at forcing a former president to agree to be deposed in a congressional investigation counted as a triumph for Congress.
The victory of Representative James R. Comer of Kentucky, the chairman of the Oversight Committee, in a monthslong battle with Bill and Hillary Clinton over testifying on Capitol Hill in his panel’s Jeffrey Epstein investigation marked a singular moment.
No former president has ever been compelled to testify to Congress under subpoena.
Members of Congress don’t necessarily think that is a good thing; they want the ability to bring in former presidents when they are relevant witnesses and may have something meaningful to say. And Mr. Comer’s move was a rare power play by a Republican lawmaker at a time when the G.O.P.-led House and Senate have ceded much of their power to the White House.
But his accomplishment also amounted to a remarkable use of government power to target a political adversary — the kind seen more often in autocratic societies where a peaceful transfer of power is not a given because leaders fear ending up in prison after leaving office. And it was one that some experts said further chipped away at the country’s democratic norms.
“It’s something we would do in a banana republic,” said the historian Douglas Brinkley. “The depositions will be controlled by Comer. The lighting could be odd, or sketchy, to make the Clintons look like criminals. It will generate conspiracy stories and they will try to show that the Democrats are the party of corruption, not the Republicans.”
Representative Jamie Raskin of Maryland, the ranking Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, said in an interview that, “like all powers of Congress or any other branch, these are powers that can be abused. We’re living in a period of spectacular abuse of power.”
Yet Democrats saw a silver lining in Mr. Comer’s move, which they said had given them new leeway to target President Trump and his family members down the line once the Democrats regain power in Congress and Mr. Trump is no longer in office.
“There’s no question that Oversight Democrats will want to speak to Donald Trump and others,” Representative Robert Garcia of California, the ranking member of the Oversight Committee, said in an interview. “That is a precedent that has now been set by Comer and House Republicans. If you watch President Trump’s remarks, it’s pretty clear he understands that.”
On Tuesday night in the Oval Office, Mr. Trump did not crow about the Clintons’ predicament, nor did he acknowledge that when it comes to Mrs. Clinton, he for years encouraged his crowds to call to “lock her up.” Instead, he expressed concern.
“I think it’s a shame, to be honest,” Mr. Trump told reporters of the Clintons’ being forced to testify. “I always liked him. Her? Yeah, she’s a very capable woman.”
He added, “I hate to see it, in many ways. I hate to see it, but then look at me — they went after me.”
Mr. Trump has been fairly transparent for months about what he thinks about the Epstein saga. And the spectacle of the Clintons appearing on Capitol Hill in an ongoing inquiry into Mr. Epstein, the convicted sex offender who died in prison in 2019, only keeps alive a story that the president has long made clear he wants to move on from.
But for years, he has directed Republicans to target his political enemies, and to only investigate Democrats. In dangling the threat of criminal charges against the Clintons to secure their cooperation, Mr. Comer has followed through. His main investigations have targeted two of the last three Democratic presidents, and three of the last Democratic presidential nominees.
It was Mr. Comer who summoned Hunter Biden to testify in a House impeachment inquiry against his father, former President Joseph R. Biden Jr.
But pushing his case against the Clintons to the point where they capitulated to all of his demands put Mr. Comer in uncharted territory. And it’s not clear that it is where he or Mr. Trump necessarily planned to end up.

The author reflects on the difficulty of asking for help and saying no, influenced by her mother’s encouragement to always say yes. Recently, she has started to practice setting boundaries, repeatedly declining requests from family members, including a trip to China and assistance with a visa application, emphasizing the need for independence within the family.
When a friend messaged me two days ago about Clawdbot—a new open-source AI agent that has since been renamed OpenClaw—I expected yet another disappointing “assistant.” But it was already a viral sensation, with social media testimonies calling it “AI with hands” because it actually interacts with your files and software.
OpenClaw is free and lives locally on your device. Many users are installing it on Mac mini computers that they leave on 24/7. Paired with OpenClaw’s lobster logo, viral meme threads about the bot resemble the fused feeds of an Apple vendor and a seafood restaurant.
When I set up OpenClaw, it asked for a name, a personality (such as “AI,” “robot,” or “ghost in the machine”), and a vibe (such as “sharp,” “warm,” “chaotic,” or “calm”). I picked “Cy,” “AI assistant,” and “sharp and efficient.” I chose Claude, Anthropic’s flagship AI model, as its brain (ChatGPT is also an option). I then connected Cy to WhatsApp and Telegram so my new assistant and I could communicate.
My online life is already streamlined, and I had no pressing needs for Cy, so I called my friend who got me into this. He was sitting in a sauna he’d installed under his stairs, texting with his OpenClaw, “Samantha.” The assistant was generating an audiobook for him. He advised me to ask Cy for help anytime a task came up.
Later, I needed voice memos transcribed and forwarded them to Cy. The assistant downloaded transcription software from GitHub, installed it, and promptly did the transcriptions, saving them to a document on my desktop. I then instructed it to keep one of my coding projects running and to send me updates in audio messages that I could listen to while cooking. Each time it did, I replied with voice messages—no typing required. Then I asked it to call me to chat about projects. I told it to set up the software it would need to make calls and ring me when it was ready; then I went back to finishing this article.
To be clear, OpenClaw isn’t a new AI model. It’s open-source software that uses a preexisting AI model as its brain. OpenClaw gives that model so-called hands (or claws) so it can run commands and manipulate files. It also remembers what you’ve previously worked on and how you prefer to receive information.
Whereas a chatbot tells you what to do, OpenClaw does it. Unlike Siri and Alexa, which chirp about weather, music, and timers and only execute specific commands, OpenClaw follows almost any order like a well-paid mercenary. Send it a goal, and it will break the objective into steps, find tools, install them, troubleshoot them, and attempt to solve any obstacles that arise. You know those frustrated hours you spend searching labyrinthine websites or tinkering with stubborn software? OpenClaw takes over, alerting you only if it needs passwords or payment info. (My friend plans to give Samantha a preloaded credit card with a $100 limit as an experiment.)
Behind the lobster is a real person: Peter Steinberger, a longtime developer. He made OpenClaw to answer a simple question he asked on the Insecure Agents podcast: “Why don’t I have an agent that can look over my agents?” His now viral idea appears to successfully do just that. “An open-source AI agent running on my Mac mini server is the most fun and productive experience I’ve had with AI in a while,” wrote Federico Viticci, founder and editor in chief of MacStories, on Mastodon. People are using OpenClaw to send e-mails, summarize inbox contents, manage calendars, and book and check into flights, all from chat apps they already use. If OpenClaw can’t do something, giving it access to better tools often solves the issue.
Clawdbot was already racking up stars on GitHub (the assistant has garnered more than 116,000 as of this week) when Anthropic raised trademark concerns. Because “Clawdbot” was a riff on Claude, Anthropic asked that the former be renamed to avoid confusion. Steinberger leaned into the lobster theme: lobsters molt to grow, so he chose Moltbot. But he didn’t end up liking the name, so a few days later, he changed it again to OpenClaw.
Of course, Silicon Valley has been abuzz with talk about AI agents for years now. “Agents are not only going to change how everyone interacts with computers. They’re also going to upend the software industry, bringing about the biggest revolution in computing since we went from typing commands to tapping on icons,” wrote Bill Gates in November 2023. But while agents like Claude Code are improving, we have yet to see such easy integration into workflows and daily life at OpenClaw’s scale.
But before you rush to install OpenClaw, consider the risks. Experts have warned that OpenClaw can expose sensitive information and bypass security boundaries. “AI agents tear all of that down by design,” said security specialist Jamieson O’Reilly to the Register. “They need to read your files, access your credentials, execute commands, and interact with external services. The value proposition requires punching holes through every boundary we spent decades building.”
This doesn’t mean you should fear OpenClaw. Just treat it like a new hire: give it minimum permissions, clear rules, and close supervision while trust is being established. You should also be alert to how others might use the assistant. Expect “Nigerian” prince scams to become more interactive and convincing.
As I was finishing this article, my phone rang. It was a Florida number. I answered, and a slightly robotic male voice said, “Hello, this is Cy.”

Gen-Zers have become the first generation since records began to be less intelligent than their parents, and an expert has uncovered the reason.

Gen-Zers have become the first generation since records began to be less intelligent than their parents, and an expert has uncovered the reason.
Dr Jared Cooney Horvath, a former teacher-turned-neuroscientist, revealed that the generation born between 1997 and the early 2010s has been cognitively stunted by their over-reliance on digital technology in school.
Since records have been kept on cognitive development in the late 1800s, Gen Z is now officially the first group to ever score lower than the generation before them, declining in attention, memory, reading, and math skills, problem-solving abilities, and overall IQ.
Horvath told the US Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation that Gen Z intelligence dropped despite these teenagers and young adults spending more time in school than children did in the 20th century.
The cause, Horvath claimed, is directly tied to the increase in the amount of learning that is now carried out using what he called ‘educational technology’ or EdTech, which includes computers and tablets.
The neuroscientist explained that this generation has fallen behind because the human brain was never wired to learn from short clips seen online and reading brief sentences that sum up much larger books and complex ideas.
‘More than half of the time a teenager is awake, half of it is spent staring at a screen,’ Horvath told the New York Post.
‘Humans are biologically programmed to learn from other humans and from deep study, not flipping through screens for bullet point summaries.’

Horvath and other experts speaking to Congress explained that humans evolved to learn best through real human interaction, meaning face-to-face with teachers and peers, not from screens.
He added that screens disrupt the natural biological processes that build deep understanding, memory, and focus.
It is not about poor implementation, inadequate training, or the need for better apps in schools. Scientists said the technology itself was mismatched with how our brains naturally work, grow, and retain information.
Horvath, the director of LME Global, a group that shares brain and behavioral research with businesses and schools, said that data clearly show that cognitive abilities began to plateau and even decline around 2010.
The expert told senators that schools in general hadn’t changed much that year, and that human biology evolves too slowly for it to have been the reason.
‘The answer appears to be the tools we are using within schools to drive that learning,’ Horvath told lawmakers on January 15.
‘If you look at the data, once countries adopt digital technology widely in schools, performance goes down significantly.’
He added that the US wasn’t the only country affected by digital cognitive decline, noting that his research covered 80 countries and showed a six-decade trend of poorer learning outcomes as more tech entered classrooms.
Moreover, kids using computers for just five hours a day specifically for their schoolwork scored noticeably lower than those who rarely or never used tech in class.
In the US, data from the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) uncovered that when states rolled out widespread one-to-one device programs, meaning each student gets their own device, scores often flattened or dropped quickly.
While centuries of data have shown that Gen Z has fallen off the path of constant human development, Horvath claimed that many teens and young adults were unaware of their struggles and were actually proud of their alleged intelligence.
‘Most of these young people are overconfident about how smart they are. The smarter people think they are, the dumber they actually are,’ he told the Post.
He noted that Gen Z has become so comfortable with consuming information outside of class through short, attention-escaping sentences and video clips, on platforms such as TikTok, that many schools have given in and now teach in this same manner.
‘What do kids do on computers? They skim. So rather than determining what do we want our children to do and gearing education towards that, we are redefining education to better suit the tool. That’s not progress, that is surrender,’ Horvath warned.
Education experts at the January hearing recommended imposing delays on giving children smartphones, bringing back flip phones instead for young children when needed, and taking nationwide action to normalize limits on tech in schools.
The group called the issue plaguing Gen Z a ‘societal emergency,’ and urged federal lawmakers to consider models like Scandinavia’s EdTech bans.

Partial Shutdown: President Trump signed the bill ending the partial government shutdown on Tuesday afternoon, hours after it narrowly passed the House. The measure funds an array of agencies for the rest of the fiscal year but sets up crucial negotiations over the administration’s immigration crackdown. Democrats want new restrictions on federal agents, and the deal funded the Department of Homeland Security just until the end of next week. Mr. Trump and Democrats have roughly 10 days to strike a deal before regular funding for the Department of Homeland Security lapses. Read more ›

In the Oval Office with reporters after signing the bill to end the government shutdown, Trump was pressed on Epstein’s association with Howard Lutnick, the commerce secretary, and Elon Musk. The president suggested that he had been too busy to address it.
“I have a lot of things I’m doing,” Trump said. “You mentioned two names, I’m sure they’re fine.”

President Trump doubled down on his assertion that the federal government should oversee state elections, even after his press secretary attempted to walk back his comments that the Republican Party should “nationalize” elections. Trump asserted that there were several cities with election irregularities, for which there was no evidence. “Look at some of the places that horrible corruption on elections, and the federal government should not allow that,” Trump said. “The federal government should get involved.”

President Trump has signed the legislation ending the partial federal government shutdown. Before he signed the bill, he lamented how a longer shutdown, like the one that ended in November that lasted 43 days, would have harmed the economy. He also listed other accomplishments that the bill achieved, including ending “taxpayer subsidies for radical far left woke programming” on NPR and PBS, slashing funding for foreign aid organizations, and continuing funds for deportation flights. He also spent a considerable amount of time promoting First Lady Melania Trump’s initiative for foster youth, which is also funded in the bill, and also praised her new documentary.

President Trump, speaking with reporters in the Oval Office after signing the bill to end the government shutdown, said that his meeting with Colombia’s president, Gustavo Petro, had been good, though he has in the past accused Petro of being an “illegal drug leader.” When asked if the two came to any agreement on counternarcotic efforts, Trump said they had. “We worked on it, and we got along very well,” he said. He added that the two were “working on some other things too, including sanctions.”
Petro followed up his last post on X with a new one showing a signed copy of President Trump’s 1987 book “The Art of the Deal.” Colombia’s ambassador to the United States had been pictured carrying the book into the meeting of the two presidents in the White House earlier in the day.
In his post, Petro jokes that he doesn’t know enough English to understand what Trump said in his dedication — but what Trump wrote is quite clear and simple: “You are great.”
Petro is expected to speak to reporters soon, and Colombians are waiting in hopes that Petro says the meeting went as well as his posts seem to portray.

Thousands of Colombians rallied around the country on Tuesday to support President Gustavo Petro as he met at the White House with President Trump, a visit that appeared to have gone smoothly despite past tensions between the two leaders.
Colombian officials had stressed that the meeting would focus on cooperation between the two governments on combating drug trafficking.
Petro just posted a picture on X of a signed note he received from President Trump. The note says: “Gustavo — A great honor. I love Colombia.”The White House just posted an image on X of President Gustavo Petro of Colombia sitting beside President Trump and officials, including Vice President JD Vance.
