Have you seen this podcast with Grimes?

- she talks about about how social media representations disincentivize her from wanting to make art... she feels like she lost control of her narrative, part her own fault and part was that "it has just been hijacked by forces far beyond my control.”

- they talk about how humans are adaptive and learn by failing, Lex using social Media as an example- how we build social medias over a generation and see the failures so we build a new, better ones.... But what if we get it so wrong we increase hate past a certain threshold and's do a lot of damage?

- Grimes questions whether there is enough incentive to make newer, useful, positive technologies that contribute to social good... "Things that help reprogram the human computer in a good way "

- we need more Protopian ideas and art (Protopian = a bit better than today or yesterday but not as overly optimistic/naive as a utopia)

It's so good:
