Tristan Harris's TED talk is amazing. He's been right all along, about the attention economy and incentives that make social media so destructive. Now he lays out the far larger risks of AI, and the "narrow path" that might get us through. Center For Humane Technology ted.com/talks/tristan_…

Bravo Florida -- an early leader in banning phone use during class time. Now the legislature and Ron DeSantis are working together to go all the way to phone-free for the whole day!

It’s a mistake to outsource most writing to AI. Even if the output is accurate and engaging, something valuable is lost in the process. Jotting down intuitions and spelling out hunches is how we develop and refine our ideas. Writing is where we do our best thinking.

I am so glad that my state (New York) is going phone-free in its schools. I'm grateful to Governor Kathy Hochul for not accepting a "classroom only" restriction, but insisting on the full day, so kids can talk to each other between classes and at lunch. nytimes.com/2025/04/29/nyr…
