But there's such an amount of editorial control that goes on with these companies.
I think towards the end of Twitter's existence, right, they were kind of testing and experimenting about this.
this idea of a public square.
And they were finding that a lot of people didn't feel comfortable posting on Twitter because they were afraid they would be harassed.
And it was kind of something that prompted them to step up and enforce a lot of content moderation to make it safer so that more voices could rise to the platform, right?
You know, Elon has talked about that his kind of ideal vision
of a public square is a player versus player video game.
So a game where you are fighting against the other person and trying to shout them down and trying to win this battle of wills.
You know, and those are both visions of a public square.
They're just very different ones.
And so I think it kind of is an invitation for us as users to think about, you know, what kind of public squares do we want?
What does that even mean to us?
And...
Yeah, I mean, I think that's an interesting thing to be thinking about, especially as we're moving into this big wave of artificial intelligence.
And people are essentially talking to a chatbot stranger all the time.
I think it's a good time to look at the lessons of Twitter and think about what was good about our conversations with strangers?
What was bad about them?
What kinds of harm did we do to the world?
Thank you.
And thanks so much for having us.
