Jonathan Haidt

You're not going to have the kind of literature that people write when they feel like shit.

But also as a whole, as a society, it probably would be an overall net positive that

if people did not want to engage in bullying, did not want to engage in violence, did not want to engage in theft, were more charitable, more benevolent.

If you look at things in that direction, that's my concern is that the rewiring of the mind, what we're essentially seeing right now is a rewiring of a mind that

We didn't anticipate it.

It has negative consequences.

We thought about it in a positive way.

Oh, this is going to be great.

We're all going to be connected.

How would it be bad that people could have more voices like Zuckerberg says?

But my fear is that it's going to just change what it means to be a human being.

And my genuine feels that this is inevitable and that as technology scales upward, this is –

unavoidable.

I don't believe that's what I said.

I think our concern was with people wandering around with kids being free to walk home in cities.

We did talk about sleepovers.

My kids have sleepovers.

They've always had sleepovers.

If you know the parents and you trust the parents, it's a great way to give the kids independence and have them interact with other people.
