The most simple one is friends, communities we live in and so forth. Part of how we get to more healthy societies is having networks of trust. And technologies can help us do that and help us form new networks of trust.

Here's the blue answer. Here's the red answer. There's a lot of blue people, a lot of red people. Here's what each of them would say. Here's what the arguments for or against on each one. The real important thing is we're all exposed to that. If you're exposed to just the blue, that's a problem. If you're exposed to just red, that's a problem.

Why would you want an AI watching kids? You can't watch your kid all the time. And by the way, in some sense, you shouldn't. No, no, they need some anonymity. But say, for example, the AI is watching kids. Oh, wait, the kid's getting into the drawer that has the rat poison in it.
