Tim Berners-Lee(1/2) 37 years ago today I submitted my proposal for the World Wide Web 🎂. Today, Rosemary & I spoke with students in New Orleans at Walter Isaacson's Digital History Class at Tulane University. I was asked, as I often am, if I ever could have foreseen where we’d be today. I could not.
(2/2) What I did know was that it was to be guided by the overarching values of fuelling creativity, driving collaboration and igniting compassion. These values are even more important in the age of AI, a technology that has the same potential to liberate and cause harm #Web37
skinnyjamesProbably a mundane question, but do you think that the web has largely been co-opted by private interests?
I read "Weaving the Web" (fascinating) as well as lightly followed your effort on Web 3.0, but I have to wonder if different protocols are going to do the trick.
In my opinion, a massively underrated achievement of the web is introducing people to systems thinking and collaboration. What happens when that same thinking is applied to our systemic non-digital counterparts?

MycotropicI wonder whether my son attended your lecture!
sonja dolinsek@timbl is there any way you could make a video or a text on this? It would be really interesting to have this for future classes.

@timbl I miss what it used to be. Monetization & ads led to spam & scam accounts trying to get as much money as possible from the same stolen content. I love what you gave the world, but not what they turned it into.
