maybe if you don't have a grant, you can have a little more freedom and flexibility.
I'm really interested in how, you know, it's a concern now with AI, how people are subjected to a lot of information and a lot of this can be used for scams and fraud.
And so I'm interested in how older adults can be kind of, you know, aware of these scams that can take, you know,
can be devastating and how we can make kind of the world better for older adults and when i say older it's like you know we're not that far away from you know why why can that self-driving car be so appealing to a younger person but not an older person and if we can make you know technology more accessible to older people it can certainly help and
I think there's simple ways to do it.
Some, it starts with attitudes, you know, how do I engage with this?
Will it work?
Will I break it?
Whereas younger people will just, they get a new iPhone and they don't, there's no instruction manual.
They're just playing around with it.
So I'm interested in that.
I don't think that has like a publication.
that I'm gonna get out of it.
And maybe there's a grant, maybe there's consulting, but I think it's having a broader kind of approach might be beneficial.
So these are more abstract goals and hopefully some of them can be realized, but it's not as tied to like, you know, when I was younger, yeah, I wanted to get tenure at UCLA, right?
I was happy to have children and have a house where we could be, you know, centrally located without a long commute.
So I think those were the practical goals.
But I think as I get older, I feel fortunate that I've achieved some of these goals that make my life more comfortable.
But there's still things out there that I'm like, are we really ever going to know how memory works?
Maybe, maybe not, but maybe we can make things easier to use.
