And I never thought it would get to a place where disinformation was so powerfully being churned out from the bathroom of the White House. It's a long time coming. And Twitter is a private company that has the ability, just like a bakery does, as they said on CNN last night. Imagine Twitter as a Christian bakery refusing to Bake a cake for a gay couple. As much as that disgust me, it is the right

@DBPardes thank you for your reply and warm welcome!

But to your point as well, I think we have to also acknowledge when an individual with influence or any individual, for that matter truly just oversteps the boundaries of what it is morally responsible in this new climate in this new technological space where various platforms allow for amplification of both good and negative messaging

🙏 + AI question

Hey, thank you so much for your quick response. And I have a question for you based on your response just to speak a little bit about your perspective on technology versus the human hand when it comes to the advancement of media, do you you want to see more power put into people's hands around, sort of creating the culture of accountability, or are you looking towards innovations in artificial intelligence and machine learning to do that? I'm just really curious about your perspective

A reveal of shared values? Kindness and reciprocity

They wanted to introduce themselves, and I actually know five or six people neighbors around me that my whole life I've never experienced that before. So it's very different experience. And I share that with in a trusted, shared environment of a common vision, we choose to live together within a certain area. We share those costs, the shared values it takes to get along them with your neighbors is I think the hope for going forward in this next decade

@DBPardes great question!

Where do we want to go as a culture, as a people, and that will determine how ours technology performs, how our AI performs, but always how we perform in the space

@LifeOrigami I fully agree!

They tend to leave it as a human interest story on the back end of a newscast when I think we have the opportunity to kind of lead with some of these stories and opportunities, and whether that happens or not, we'll soon see. But I think local media and those of us who are not necessarily the CNN and Fox and NBCS of the world have the ability to do exactly what you just said and highlight the tie that binds us all together

And the one thing that Homes opinion in that case in 1919 was that he highlighted speech that is dangerous and false, and that's not protected. And that's where I really start to dig into the dilemma or the decision that I have is what is dangerous and false. Dangerous and true is protected, of course, but dangerous and false

@Phil thank you for your comments!!

What is dangerous and untrue, because the lack of truth then creates a point of manipulation, for the most part, intentional or whether it be even unintentional, dangerous and untrue. You now have a recipe for what I could say is deliberate disaster. And I think you're spot on with that. And so I was excited to hear your commentary on this and thank you for asking, adding your thoughts and perspective to this and for the warm welcome as well. I truly appreciate it
