Meta's settlement with state attorneys general added teen time limits and design changes. But Juvaria Shahid, legal fellow at Tech Justice Law, writes that "the settlement leaves much to be desired" and is not the tech industry's "Big Tobacco" moment.

I will not only be relieved but truly *ecstatic* to be wrong, if more and better studies soon start showing that AI actually improves learning and cognitive motivation.

Thank you! At an event last night I said "If the word hope doesn't work for you try, 'Never fucking surrender.'" The word hope seems too sunny to a lot of people, but the heart of it as I'm interested in it is: we make the future in the present, if we show up, and that never surrender part.
