Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Anyone need a Costco shopping list?

Perplexity Deep Research:
can you write me a deep dive into the tariffs in the US happening now, and consider what household things may be affected. i have a 5 year old and 1 year old, so think of the things that i'll need to stock up on before prices rise

I’m so tired of this bullshit “prepare kids for AI” lens. Please let’s grow up.

The US constitution is a great marketing document but it obviously doesn’t reflect reality. And today looks like a press release for the founding phoniness of our country. #inauguration

I’m watching this inauguration live, but it feels like I’m already seeing historical footage of something that won’t be repeated. #inauguration

"What if we just left the billionaires alone and created a parallel economy for the rest of us?"

I've been thinking about alternatives to capitalism in our AI future that don't require revolution. Here's why this time could be different...

New randomized, controlled trial by the World Bank of students using GPT-4 as a tutor in Nigeria. Six weeks of after-school AI tutoring = 2 years of typical learning gains, outperforming 80% of other educational interventions.

And it helped all students, especially girls who were initially behind.

I do dream journals with my 5 year old. We use AI image generation to try and create a representation of what he sees in his dreams. He said "I had a dream that there were huge monster trucks with eyeballs coming out".

I didn't ask too many questions. #AIParenting #TheAIParent #DreamJournal

This visualization from NASA is maybe the most compelling way to see what we're navigating. I have a lot to say, but nothing more than what this visual does.

How does parenting look in a world where all of our kids can be savants. In my day, if I was doing what my kid is with the help of AI (no screens), they would have called me a prodigy. But all kids can be prodigies now. #AIParenting #ScreenTime #TheAIParent

Our kids don't need us to have all the answers anymore. In fact they never did.

They need us to ask better questions, to stay curious, and to learn alongside them. That's what AI-empowered parenting looks like. #AIParenting #LifelongLearning #GenAI #TheAIParent

The Triangle of Communication: Parent, Child, and AI. It's not about replacing human connection - it's about creating new spaces for understanding and growth. Here's an excerpt of a conversation I had with my 4 year old and AI #AIParenting #FamilyCommunication #TheAIParent

AI doesn't just reflect our biases - it amplifies them. As parents, we can use this mirror to start crucial conversations about equity & justice with our kids. That's how change begins. #AIParenting #InclusiveAI #GenAI #TheAIParent

When AI feels overwhelming, remember: We're the last generation to know a world without it, and the first (perhaps only) to shape its impact. That's not just opportunity - it's very serious responsibity. #AIParenting #GenAI #TheAIParent

Your child's AI companion doesn't mean more screen time - it could be the antidote to social media's grotesque culture. Imagine tech that nurtures rather than exploits. Don't let Altman/Elon et al decide how our kids are going to build this AI future. #AIParenting #Screentime #TheAIParent

Stop trying to compete with AI, and instead embrace what makes us uniquely human. Let your kids get muddy. Feel the sun. Watch seeds grow.

I share my DNA with the natural world, not emails. Let AI do the digital things that's in its DNA. #AIParenting #HumanityFirst #TheAIParent

When my baby wouldn't stop crying at Lake Merritt, a stranger yelled 'You got this!' I've only recently realized how AI was like that encouraging dad - helping us through parenting's toughest moments, judgment-free. #AIParenting #ParentingSupport #TheAIParent

A family that goal-sets together, stays together! How we turned weekly planning into a fun ritual using AI. The secret? Let the kids lead the way. Their fresh perspectives might surprise you. #AIParenting #TheAIParent #FamilyGoals

Too often we tell kids to focus purely on grades & external validation. But in an AI world, their creativity, imagination, and unique perspectives aren't just cute - they're superpowers. Celebrate the rule-breaking kids. #AIParenting #TheAIParent
