Cornelia Walther explores how our "pre-digital" cognitive architecture can prevent algorithmic atrophy and prioritise human flourishing over mere ROI.

@rhortal This is a really valuable perspective.
As the last analog generation, we have a unique responsibility to help steer AI toward human flourishing rather than just efficiency and ROI.
That’s exactly why I created “Be Kind to Your Robot Friends” — a freely available K-12 framework to help young people develop compassion, wisdom, and ethical awareness in their relationship with AI.

@rhortal As someone with deep product leadership experience, especially in education, I’d genuinely love to hear your thoughts.
I created this framework with the simple hope that it finds its way to anyone who can benefit from it. It’s completely free and open for anyone to use or adapt.
Would be very interested in your perspective as a product leader.
