This paraphrase from Tristan Harris (by way of Freedom Baird) came across the in Ed discussion group and seems worth sharing: The advent of social media was our “first contact” with AI, and we didn’t anticipate the negative consequences in time. And now LLMs constitute our “second contact” and let’s not screw it up.

Interesting. I would put "first contact" with AI at ELIZA, and then maybe another milestone is Mark V. Shaney posts to net.singles.

"The Algorithm" certainly was around before it was applied to your social media timeline - think of all of those bloggers (myself included) who hacked their headlines to make them palatable for Google SEO and who chased search trends and traffic.
