Thrilled to share my new article on AI and power with @henrytimms in HBR’s Jan/Feb issue. Our argument: think of these new advanced AI systems as “autosapiens” — actors in society, not as tools under our direct control — and learn how to deal with them. hbr.org/2024/01/leading-in-a…

My new @HarvardBiz piece with @jeremyheimans argues we should see this new generation of AI as "Auto Sapiens". No longer tools, but increasingly as actors. We predict the rise of the DSO (digital significant other) and a higher “Return on Humanity”. tinyurl.com/4ruk7kbp

People who thought that climate change was far off, removed from their day-to-day lives, now realize it’s in full swing and it’s terrifying. This can be paralyzing. Great discussion with @KHayhoe, @jeremyheimans & @Ginger_Zee on how to engage people with climate solutions.

Fascinating conversation with @Purpose's @jeremyheimans and philanthropists, scientists, academics, tech leaders & others on communicating the climate crisis. At the @UN, we are working to ensure that everyone can access the facts about climate change.

I enjoyed this wide-ranging conversation with Marquis on the new episode of Putting Numbers To Work. We spoke about what purposeful work really is (and isn’t) - and how it is shaping workplace dynamics. Listen below: #MetLifePartner link.chtbl.com/putting-numbe…

THIS is US: Americans in nearly 10,000 zip codes in all 50 states have applied to sponsor 216,000+ Ukrainians. Millions of us are involved in sponsoring Ukrainians, Afghans, Haitians, Venezuelans, Cubans. We are—and will remain—a welcoming country. cbsnews.com/news/a-year-into…

So happy today to share the news of @Purpose’s expanded leadership team and my own move to Chairman. As a founder it’s been wonderful to see Purpose evolve from a single unassembled table in NYC to a team of 200 people in 12 countries. purpose.com/purpose-grows-it…

Brimming with pride for @henrytimms and this recognition for his vast and varied contributions to public life — and he’s just getting started. And in these chic robes he has never looked more like a Renaissance Man.
Deeply grateful to @durham_uni for inviting me to become an honorary Doctor of Letters. As a proud graduate of @CollingwoodDU this was especially meaningful.

Climate action needs more people peacefully taking to the streets, not fewer. But in Australia, climate protesters are being increasingly + disproportionately subjected to vindictive legal action: @hrw hrw.org/news/2022/06/22/aust…

We are heartbroken by the loss of LPAC Founder Urvashi Vaid. Her activism, vision, and determination changed the world. The LGBTQ+ movement has lost a fierce fighter. We will miss her deeply, and will continue to look to her example as we fight for equality and social justice.

Urvashi Vaid lit me up - my head, my heart, my sense of what is possible - every time we were together. I loved her very much. She will also be my model of what a great activist and human being looks like. Miss you already Urv and love you, Kate.

Biggest congrats, @MarwanSJalani
Today, I submitted my @UniofOxford and @Politics_Oxford dissertation on post-conflict elections and institutional reforms that mitigate the risk of war recurrence. This work is for my mother and her sacrifices, for my family displaced and re-displaced around the world.

Reading #newpower by @jeremyheimans and @henrytimms. Just hammers home to me how much we need to shift our #mindsets in how we aim to bring about change. New times, new rules of #Communication. #shiftingmindsets #Leadership @DaveStachowiak

With fossil fuel combustion driving a global climate breakdown, there’s no room for greenwashing this #EarthDay. There’s a clear human rights path to phasing out fossil fuels. But first some history... Earth Day has its origins in an oil disaster (🧵1/6) 📷Get Oil Out collection
