Hi Alina, sorry to be late commenting, but it's been a busy week of labor - oh no! ... of work - oh no! ... of action!! lol

I must say, in the last days so much news and conversations are taking place. And though it is because of AI it is symptomatic they all converge to the human side, and specially human's cognitive action.

For sometime I have been putting aside to revisit Neil Postman, but I delved in his main thesis and his critical position on technology in the last weeks. I even shared his biography to my readers. In Brazil he is most known in the Educational realms, and less so on the aspects of Media & Society where he really hit hard.

For my delight as I least expected, Tristan from the CHT brought a video with two guests to talk on Neil Postman's ideas! That was in March and only today came to my attention. So I keep on tying up the edges.

I see in it all a real thread as a wave of ideas and perceptions is leading us to a higher place where we can view the future more clearly. I'll get back to action now.
