The Snow Globe Theory: Why Your Conversations Feel Off

Subscribe to Mamamia

A portrait of Australia's richest woman has gone viral. We explain why Gina Rinehart is experiencing something called the “Streisand Effect”.

Plus, why you should just start shouting SNOW GLOBE at people halfway through a conversation. We unpack why so many people have lost the art of conversation.

And, is life imitating art? After starring in a movie as the voice of artificial intelligence, Scarlett Johannson has now taken on ChatGPT following the release of a voice that is without a doubt 'eerily similar' to hers.
