Not that it matters, but I'll likely be done with X/Twitter by EOY - for all the reasons.👋
I won't miss it now. I do miss the former community, the vitality of viralty, the connection to others, the stirring and momentum, Arab Spring, the invention of the #... a good run. Ciao.

#Founders and company leaders: DO NOT do this (see headline 👇)!
Innovation, your customers, the world needs TRUST to succeed.
The only way to build trust is to SET expectations, then MEET/EXCEED those expectations. Repeat.
Sometimes it's hard, but customers will reward you.

Just like the X-Files to stir up a new mystery decades later and have us all questioning. Nice that this episode 👇 wrapped up with a happy ending.... mystery solved!

Tl:dr - propaganda biz employee makes false claims under false pretenses to oust competitive biz & create more propaganda.... at the expense of kids and democracy.

1. Earlier this month, a mysterious woman appeared before a school board in Texas and claimed that, when she was 11, she READ A SCHOLASTIC BOOK THAT SPARKED A DEBILITATING PORN ADDICTION.
We investigated.
And it's ABSOLUTELY WILD what is happening.

First thing I noticed as the new OpenAI board was announced was the lack of diversity - not for the "About Us" homepage, but for the organization's success... so short sighted. Addressing it quickly would be the right thing, and 👇 is right... so many qualified candidates!

The @OpenAI Board reshuffle with zero women is a grave mistake and should be considered a high priority.
4 billion women on this amazing planet. Surely we can find 2 or 3 to join the epic responsibility to navigate the future of AI impacting 8 billion people.
Here are some women to consider on your Board @OpenAI:

Secrecy is so detrimental to the AI field and to the world right now. It fuels misinformation, sends tons of researchers and ressources to the wrong directions and leads to dangerous mistakes like bad regulation because of public opinion fears. I wish leaders of the field would take this issue more seriously and foster more transparency and openness!

Happy Thanksgiving to you, your families & friends.
I’m thankful for peace-loving humans (and the innovations they create), willing and able to differentiate nuance, thoughtfully engage, and work together to make our planet better one day at a time.
What are you thankful for?

As many prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving, remember that those in charge must also recharge. I hope that you are able to take a break from your daily expectations and spend the next few days sharing time with loved ones, resting and resetting.
Happy Thanksgiving!

As you head into your Thanksgiving break, we wish you days filled with time, rest and reflection.
Happy Thanksgiving!

What if four days of peace becomes four weeks?
Four months?
Four years?!
The most difficult journeys start with a single step in the right direction.
Work, and pray, for peace…

💡 "The idea of @EdtechTulna is to create standards for what 'good' looks like in EdTech", shared CSF's Gouri Gupta during a session on EdTech quality and usage anchored by @WBG_Education last evening.
Thanks to all participants for the engaging discussion!
