Of Mice & Owls, Ed Tech, and Tech Time Limits

About this episode

The episode discusses the challenges of superintelligence, recent tech news, and parental concerns about screen time limits for children.

Nick Bostrom once compared our pursuit of superintelligence to mice trying to domesticate an owl. The most recent news concerning Anthropic's Mythos strikes a little too close to home. Yet not all tech news is so grim: Is Apple's Neo laptop the ed tech solution we've been waiting for? We also dive into a parent question concerning how much time is too much on tech in a day.
