🤔Social media companies are in between a rock & a hard place w/ speech:
👉We have shifted power from gov't to companies (public sq. inside publicly-traded companies)
👉Social media companies don't want this power
👉 They are struggling w/ this power

It was a packed house for @camille_carlton's talk with @TechEthicist about what it means to be human in the age of AI. The full video of the talk will be available in the coming days.
Camille and David explored how AI is being woven deeper into our lives, changing the way we think, relate, work, and understand ourselves.
At CHT, we call this slow erosion of our fundamental humanity AI Drift. This fall, we'll be launching a campaign to raise awareness around how AI is eroding what makes us human — and giving you the tools to fight back against AI Drift. You can sign up to get updates on this campaign here: humanetech.com/aidrift
Thank you to @AllTechIsHuman and @BrainStation for hosting last night's event!

"Our humanity itself is a new type of product in this era of AI"
@camille_carlton spoke to @TechEthicist about "AI Drift": the gradual erosion of human abilities as AI takes on more of our daily lives. As we rely on AI to think, communicate, create, and act for us, we start losing the skills, relationships, and sense of meaning that come from doing those things ourselves.
This fall, CHT is launching a campaign to Stop the AI Drift — to push back against the erosion of what makes us human and to advocate for the new rights and protections we need in the AI age. To stay up to date on this work, you can sign up here: bit.ly/3UmMj34

We brought together a working group of experts across law, sociology, and philosophy to explore what makes us uniquely human — and what parts of our human experience are worth protecting from AI.
Their answer? Friction.
At her fireside chat with @TechEthicist on AI and What Makes Us Human, @camille_carlton spoke about the importance of friction to human flourishing and why we should resist the urge to eliminate it with AI.
We'll be releasing the report from our working group as part of our upcoming campaign to Stop the #AIDrift: the gradual erosion of human abilities as AI takes on more of our daily lives. You can sign up for updates on this work here: bit.ly/3UmMj34

Some news: I'm writing a book about AGI!
I've spent the past few years hanging out in San Francisco's AGI scene — the small cluster of people working to build human-level AI, or trying to stop it from being built, or living as if it's already here.
I've heard a lot of great stories, and done a bunch of columns and podcasts. But I think this era also deserves a real-time, journalistic account that captures all of the nuance and detail and behind-the-scenes drama of the race to AGI in a durable format. So I'm writing one.
Get in touch if you have stories to share!

What’s wrong with a 10-year moratorium on AI regulation?
It stalls growth, say Nathan Sanders and Alex Pascal in the @cwbeacon.
“Regulating technology to protect people’s well‑being actually creates pressure for better innovation.”
