My utterly brilliant, hardworking love @itsJason won a Pulitzer yesterday for EVERY LIVING THING. (Really good book, BTW. You don't need the @PulitzerPrizes to tell you to go get your copy now.) 🏆

Please enjoy watching @tristanharris blow @jonstewart's mind multiple times.
Enjoyed doing this interview with @jonstewart @weeklyshowpod and @ezraklein on the social media fun-house mirror distortion machine. A.I. will super-charge the harms of social media as it washes over society, unless we change the incentives from maximizing engagement.

Oh NO. This is a huge deal. Such a disappointing move from @Stanford whose students and staff have been menaced by elected lawmakers and their henchmen. Unbelievable. The Stanford Internet Observatory is being dismantled.

The AI safety movement seems to be reaching an inflection point. Glad to have produced this important episode of YOUR UNDIVIDED ATTENTION with @tristanharris @aza and whistleblower William Saunders. @HumaneTech_.
Yesterday @aza and I were honored to interview William Saunders, who was part of the recent group of OpenAI whistleblowers who came forward. . William worked on safety issues at OpenAI but resigned because he saw the company consistently prioritize growth.
