“We have to ask what is lost, who is harmed, and what should be forgotten with the embrace of artificial intelligence in decision making. It is of no collective social benefit to organize information resources on the web through processes that solidify inequality and marginalization - on that point I am hopeful many people will agree.”

An excellent idea & the concept. The diagrams/drawings are fantastic - even a few pages that unfold for a much larger images.

I so very much wanted to enjoy this - even borrowed from hubby‘s shelves. The explanations are so oversimplified that it makes reading difficult, imo. I really disliked & fail to understand the name changes (i.e. bathroom to water room🤦🏻‍♀️)

TieDyeDude I love the other books from this author, but Thing Explainer did not work. I get the concept, but poor execution. 1w

This is a really important book that all parents and educators should read. It shows how the epidemic of mental illness stems directly from our shift from ‘play based‘ to ‘phone based‘ childhoods. The data and evidence in this book is truly mind blowing. I had not heard the term ‘sociogenic illnesses‘ before but it makes total sense to me and something I‘ve long suspected is happening. It‘s not all doom and gloom. There are solutions. Read it!

This book deserves all the attention it is getting. Every parent, every educator, and any person who has an adolescent in their life needs to read this book. I wish I could turn back the clock and do things differently with my children and technology, especially my youngest.

Cupcake12 This sounds really insightful x 3w

A new episode of The Checkout Stack featuring @monalyisha and Megan Tully from the Ames Free Library in MA just dropped this morning. Tune in for a great set of book recommendations and a bonus cozy TV show which I enjoyed while recovering from a cold.

thecheckoutstack Thanks so much for listening @BookmarkTavern! 4w
Chelsea.Poole Just finished the episode. Really enjoyed hearing @monalyisha and all the recs. This may just be my favorite new podcast!?! (I don‘t listen to podcasts but maybe I do now!) 4w
monalyisha Aww, thanks @Chelsea.Poole & @BookmarkTavern! I don‘t typically listen to podcasts either but you know I think this topic is worth it…and I love Maria‘s passion! I *do* listen to Katherine May‘s podcast occasionally (because of course I do). And I managed to get into “60 Songs That Explain the 90‘s” for a while (the episode about Mazzy Star was my personal fave). 4w
