"The collective wealth of UK billionaires increased by £35 million per day to a total of £182 billion in 2024, according to a report from Oxfam.

This growth in cash would be enough to cover the city of Manchester in £10 notes almost one-and-a-half times"

The real deadline isn't technological.

It's regulatory:

"If we get to the end of 2025 with no meaningful AI regulation, I'm going to be worried."

Time is running out.

[Jonathan Haidt @JonHaidt]

New study shows that TikTok and Insta trap young people, who feel they MUST use the platforms because… everyone else does. But if offered the chance to PAY to have everyone in their college delete the apps, most on TikTok, and half on Insta, would pay.

Also: most students say they’d PREFER to live in a world with no TikTok or Insta. Even most active users of Insta say that.

Social media is not a normal consumer product. The negative spillover effects are enormous, not just on non-users, but on active users as well, the authors conclude.

The business models of Meta and TikTok require trapping young users in this way. The presence of major external costs imposed on others--especially children--is the textbook example of why societies impose regulations, and why class action lawsuits exist.
