Gave a guest lecture in St. John's School in Tallinn for their meta-thinking course. I discussed how we often adopt external metrics that define our self-worth through number-go-up dopamine cycles, and building simple systems to store information outside one's own brain.

We had so much fun on the Computers, Privacy and Data Protection book club/workshop session, and such a great turnout for talking about literature in the morning!

I wrote on Vísir about technology's promise to capture and preserve culture, but only if we stop waiting for the private sector to do it for us.

Hosting a side event at Innovation Week to ask questions about innovation itself. Are we innovating just because we can, or because we should? Will be speaking about solving global issues while trusting our messy human instincts, and about projects that don’t fit into boxes.

Dóra and I went live on the most popular radio station in Iceland to talk about tech ethics, the Icelandic Associaton for Humane Technology and the very urgent need to prioritize the well-being of humans and societies over profit-driven growth and personal interest.

Yesterday, a discussion evening with @thorlaug.bsky.social about why privatized digital "public" spaces no longer support democratic societies. Next week, we continue the discussion with Arnar Sigurðsson and (attempt to) imagine a healthier Internet.

Speaking at this conference on Thursday. My talk is called Spreadsheets, souls, and fragile futures. Expect a passionate case for trusting messy human instincts rather than praying at the altar of infinite growth and a rant about the number-go-up approach to measuring solutions to complex problems.
