Yeah, like not giving your underage kid a smartphone. Not letting them have a computer in their bedroom and having it in the living room where you can monitor their use. Yeah. All kinds of interesting things. Can I ask you about AI agents? Because we're very aware that these are just trillions of dollars are being poured into this area. but there doesn't seem to be any ethical frameworks.

Yeah, I've experimented a little bit and then I abandoned it because I just don't have the funds or the time. But I paid for a bot from MIT AI Lab affiliations and I uploaded two million words of my writings and my lectures and my courses and everything else. Instead of it drawing upon the general information of the world, it just had Steve Hassan's expertise on the subject.
