My AI agent is part of my extended cognition. There may no longer be a clean line between me and R Mini Arnold anymore. And that could be the new normal for all of us very soon.

🤖 On #AILiteracyDay, we’re thinking back to our conversation 11/16/23 as Nicholas Thompson & Nita Farahany presented “AI and the Future of Everything” at #UBSpeakers!

From creativity to mental privacy, they challenged how we think about AI in everyday life.

Am I glad there is a cease-fire?

Yes.

Am I relieved that the US hasn’t just eliminated an “entire civilization of people?”

Yes.

It’s not just because I’m Iranian American.
It’s not just because Iran is where all my aunts, uncles, cousins and extended family live.

These aren’t the right questions.

The only appropriate question is how threatening the mass genocide of innocent people can possibly be ok.

And if you ask me that question I can answer.

It cannot.

No, I am not ok.
No, this is not ok.
No, we can never repair the damage from what has been said.

A few days ago, I wrote about the attorney who authored a law review article in 15 hours with the help of AI. The attorney has decided to identify himself and to detail his experience, and he asked me to help get the word out. Here's his explanation:

Are distractions taking over your ability to think freely?

At our #FreeSpeechSummit2025, @NitaFarahany shares how you can take back your cognitive liberty.

[Azeem Azhar @azeem]

300,000 lines of code this year. All written using AI.

I built my own research and reasoning apps. I use them every day.

Last week, driving, my AI agent R Mini Arnold gave me advice. I took it.

Who's in charge here?

I asked @NitaFarahany @EricTopol @krishnanrohit and @nxthompson to join me in answering this question.

Live, Friday 11am ET on Exponential View.

Does our ability to speak freely matter if we can't think freely?

At our #FreeSpeechSummit2025, @NitaFarahany argues that one carries a bigger risk.

[Luke Burgis @lukeburgis]

I'll be at @AEI 's DC headquarters on Monday for their new AI Ethics Council kick-off, moderating one of two featured panels on the very question what good deliberation about AI even is.

I'll be joined in conversation by Matthew B. Crawford, @NitaFarahany, and Brian Boyd. If you're in town, register and come by. If you're not, you can register for the live stream. I hope to meet a few of you there!

More evidence that Meta is following the tobacco industry playbook for avoiding responsibility. (See p. 5 for evidence that it's mostly Meta).
