If you don’t have anything to give right now or can’t go to help right now, it is okay to help later. They will still need help next week, next month.
Settle down. Ground yourself n ready up fi assist.

In @harari_yuval's new book, "Nexus: A Brief History of Information Networks from the Stone Age to AI," he explores the perils and possibilities of AI, warning that without creating self-correcting mechanisms, AI might be a “terminal error” for humanity.
As I write in my piece about the book in @TIME, Harari seems to regard human nature as roughly fixed, and algorithms as inevitably exploiting human weaknesses and biases. But why assume that AI will only be used to exploit our vices and not to fortify our virtues? After all, what’s best in us is at least as deeply imprinted and encoded as what’s worst in us. And that code is also open source for developers to build on.
Of course, there are going to be plenty of companies that continue to use algorithms to divide us and prey on our basest instincts. But we can also still create alternative models that augment our humanity.
As Harari writes, “while computers are nowhere near their full potential, the same is true of humans.” By using AI, with its power of hyper-personalization, as a real time coach to strengthen what is best in us, we can also strengthen our individual self-correcting mechanisms and as a result build better self-correcting mechanisms for our institutions. This is the critical point in the nexus of humanity and technology that we find ourselves in.

I need the universe to align all the stars and tings so I can run into Trevor Noah. with enough time and good energy in the mix for us to sit and chat… I have so much to say to that man. I’m tired of talking back to his podcast like a crazy person
it has truly been the shock of my life to come across the duolingo creator’s ted talk… be impressed… then proceed to use it and learn enough to already be making deeper connections with my spanish speaking NYC aunties… LOVE IT… then uncover endless duolingo hate!!! 😢
Duolingo is not a business. It is an absurdist art project. An app for learning languages that no one actually learns a language from.
Like a restaurant full of people waiting for their food that never comes
