There‘s not enough time
To learn all I want to know
And yet still I‘ll try

pickThis is a historian‘s perspective of our current place in human history: how will AI change our lives? Harari attempts to answer this question by looking to the past to consider the future of the technology age. I loved this, though it is a long and information-heavy journey through time. Everyone should listen to this to understand our time and place in history, where we came from, and the warnings of where we could be headed.
pickThis book is important. It‘s also A LOT. It goes way back in time to how we gathered and why ( we love a unifying narrative) and all the ways those narratives have caused us harm or to do harm. We are the smartest and dumbest of creatures. It all leads up to the creation of AI and the good and bad it can and will bring. We need to create self correcting strategies. We need to fund education. We need to start yesterday.
Building away. YNH is talking about how computer algorithms can go awry and referencing Facebook's involvement in spreading lies and misinformation against the Rohingya people. I read about this in Maria Ressa's How to Stand up to a Dictator. What's awful is even when people called out the lies and called on FB to stop the algorithms, the damage was done. CBC spoke this week about how easy and cheap it is to buy groups on FB with followers 😢
Starting a new set
“when rich white men did all the talking it was easier to reach agreements” 🤮 my little flower arrangement is complete and bringing me joy ( I put pansies in my front planters but I‘m going to have to bring them in tonight #stormbrewing)
I‘m basically just listening to this and hiding from everything
