Surveying 3,700 German workers, we find these beliefs strongly predict training uptake. Lower-skilled workers expect smaller non-pecuniary returns—but information can close this gap.

Can you guess what happened when researchers in Germany gave kids e-readers & access to a large digital library of age-appropriate books? ... ... ... Reading performance went up as a direct result. But (!) so did math performance. And (!!) so did socio-emotional well-being.

AI + social media = polarization machine 🧠📱 Recommender systems trap users in echo chambers and ad-based platforms profit from partisan division.
