Hey @elonmusk, what we might pay for in a #BlueCheckMark is the ability to control the settings on Twitter's algorithm. Don't assume outrage is the best way to capture our attention. & please don't send it to my phone. Let the users drive and shape our own information ecosystem.

We need a groundswell of empowered innovators to address the world's wicked problems, not just the brightest and richest. @BillGates "...market forces won’t naturally produce AI products and services that help the poorest. The opposite is more likely." https://t.co/Q5XvDXJtw5

Bill Gates explains why AI is as revolutionary as personal computers, mobile phones, and the Internet, and he gives three principles for how to think about it.

The Banana App originated from @BeGoodProject, and it is awesome! We helped them find skilled volunteers to bring their vision to reality.
@techlozenge There is an app available to stop imperfect food being put into the garbage & instead feeding those who go hungry. The #BananaApp is explained by its originator, @DemocracyLab, https://t.co/vLpnSdR3Hr. You can find the BananaApp in both the Google play & apple app stores.
