A GenZer recommending the book Jonathan Livingston Seagull. There's hope for us yet. Fantastic podcast.

Every generation has confronted challenges but millennials, Gen Z, and every generation after have grown up with increasingly frictionless lives. AI will only compound this. Our children deserve experiences that allow them to learn, critically think about, and reckon with life’s challenges.

Loved it! That part about “hollowness” begs for more analysis. Is it post-consumerism? Post-capitalism? Is it the loss of grounding in a digital age? Is it just the economy killing the social contract? Meaninglessness could be the root of so much of society’s issues right now.

loved it! as a college professor, very interested in understanding what’s going on in higher education, this has much relevance for leadership. Two brilliant people having a brilliant conversation, but so on the down low.

Made me wonder about the intersection between attention and addiction

Great episode! Huge fan, always listen, I'd like to share an insight.
"At heart AI is an articulator of consensus reality"
I want to push back. At heart, AI is a universal function machine.
It takes a problem and a solution and generates the function that matches the 2 together.
TYSM!!!!

Truth is easy to obtain if you are willing to take the time to do a competent search.
People should stop believing the lies many candidates for elected office tell them.
People may read Bill of Rights, Constitution, Federalist Papers on net.
Political parties have amnesia dealing with history

I'm curious to find out if Gen Z is also the generation with the greatest family wealth verses prior generations. This in no way is meant to diminish the burden of coming of age in the period they did. I'm glad I didn't. I'm a Gen X 1.0, using Kyla's bucketing system, which I love.

Ezra. Do a show on the book There’s No Place for us with Brian Goldstone.

Thanks for introducing me to Kyla, and for your ongoing thoughtful discussions.

As usual, good content . . . as usual, your female guest speaks with a sing-songy voice, giggling inappropriately throughout like a little girl. This is true with 90% of all podcasts. Only people sensitive to 'sounds' (like me) care enough to even mention it -- I think. And I am.
