Social apps erode trust by not allowing researchers to analyze mental health data. Real world interaction is about playing the iterative tit-for-tat game. The foundation of this strategy is built on trust. The online world is not a zero sum game and we need to change our ways.

I just wrote a 9k word article about the 9 design interactions responsible for the social media mental health crisis. Read it here: circlo.com/9-design-inter…. Please share if you've learned something new. #socialmedia #interactiondesign #mentalhealth #ethics #addiction #stress

Every designer is familiar with Nielsen Norman Group. They are the "world leaders in research-based user experience" yet they have ZERO research on design related mental health. Why is that?

6 months ago we published a letter calling for a pause on giant AI experiments. Despite massive public/expert concern, corporations remain locked in an AI arms race. So what 𝘩𝘢𝘴 happened? And what needs to happen next? Signatories reflect: futureoflife.org/ai/six-month-l…👇 🧵1/12

We need a cure. "The arrival of social media in the early 2000s was our most recent encounter with a socially transformative technology that spread with almost no regulation, oversight, or liability. It has proven to be a multidimensional disaster." jonathanhaidt.substack.com/p/ai-will-make…

Just listened to this excellent podcast and feel like Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. and Vivek have been reading my writing about the state of illusive design in social media. Everything was on point. Glad things are moving in the right direction. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/hub…

Interesting article on illusive design by @circlodotcom : How capitalism, and cognitive biases affects peoples’ life. Another good example on the necessity of design ethics and deeper understanding of human behavior. uxmag.com/articles/the-i…

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

Join me on my journey as I build my dream product using AI to tackle the challenges of digital systemic inequities in humanity-centered design—for a more inclusive and humane future. Weekly newsletter: eepurl.com/dzFMeL #AI #inclusivedesign #buildinginpublic #AI10XNEHCD

Kicking things off, here’s a new article I wrote discussing the toughest challenges in humanity-centered design and how we can tackle digital systemic inequities together. #AI #HealthTech #InclusiveDesign #HumaneTech #BuildingInPublic #AI10XNEHCD circularchaos.medium.com/10-design-prob…

I’ve always had this calling to bring people together. At university I even wrote a ~150 page dissertation on building a social relevance graph (tinyurl.com/y9e82ptr). I'm going to turn this into reality with the help of AI. Follow the journey here: eepurl.com/dzFMeL.

My vision is to empower people to optimize every facet of their mindset using cutting-edge science, fostering a more inclusive world. Before you take on the world however, you need to start small. #AI #HealthTech #InclusiveDesign #HumaneTech #BuildingInPublic #AI10XNEHCD

Prioritizing a niche is how great products start. There are many ways to prioritize a market—size, competition & expertise. l'll prioritize expertise as I do design. Firstly we need to understand who we're designing for. #AI #InclusiveDesign #BuildingInPublic #AI10XNEHCD

The design sector is chronically underserved. Design platforms and communities have become ghost towns. The job market is brutal and opportunities are scarce for those who are marginalized. Let’s fix this. #AI #InclusiveDesign #BuildingInPublic #AI10XNEHCD
