Take a breath before you share information, and don't deceive your friends and your families and your colleagues and further pollute the online information ecosystem.

We're at a fork in the road,

One path, we can keep doing what we've been doing for 20 years, allowing technology to rip us apart as a society, sowing distrust, hate, intolerance.

Or we can change paths.

We can find a new way to leverage the power of technology to work for us and with us and not against us.

That choice is entirely ours.

Thank you.

Signal-to-noise ratio is getting close to one.

Stay off of Twitter, stay off of X, and stay off of everything else for that matter.

I would say we're getting close to 50%.

Yes, but it's becoming increasingly more difficult.

No.

Whoa.

Okay.

By the way, this is a secondary problem, which is now people are creating fake things, then going to fake sites to authenticate fake things, and it's all getting very weird.

Don't do it.
