![A few weeks ago, a purported student at Alpha School - the teacherless AI-powered private academy led by software developer Joe Liemandt - posted to X, "Today [at Alpha School] they hooked me up to a heart rate monitor, put my live pulse on a big screen, and played a pre-recorded video of my parents giving critical feedback in front of the entire class. The challenge was simple: my resting heart rate was 80 bpm, and I had to stay within 10% of that the whole time. Anything above 88 was a fail."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:sd7g4tvhirjb32cufgxgkdvx/bafkreigch7sbmiyjmzeumwhkmol4dns2vewinekzwcuwydbt4x64xgc364)
![Psychological study
In his second year at Harvard, Kaczynski participated in a study led by Harvard psychologist Henry Murray. Subjects were told they would debate personal philosophy with a fellow student and were asked to write essays detailing their personal beliefs and aspirations.
The essays were given to an anonymous individual who would confront and belittle the subject in what Murray himself called
"vehement, sweeping, and personally abusive" attacks, using the content of the essays as ammunition.(25] Kaczynski spent 200 hours as part of the study.!261[27]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:sd7g4tvhirjb32cufgxgkdvx/bafkreifkyksvmxrcbdqdtxm6n3263yqjtuvlzyyniz6f3kkmbuelsviq6a)
