@yixue_zhao@LifeAtPurdue@WashU Really like the interdisciplinary approach here. Bringing data, psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy together feels essential if we want to build AI that supports human wellbeing rather than produces empathetic agreeable responses. Excited to see how these contributes 🍀
You don’t need to change your entire life to give your attention more room.
Sometimes, a few small changes to your everyday routine are enough.
What could you change tomorrow?

Most of us consume more information than ever. More information doesn't mean more understanding.
It often means less attention for each piece.
Choosing what to ignore is part of thinking clearly.
@nireyal Very useful perspective. Totally agree.
Timeboxing is a promise; distraction can become a feel-good way of delaying and coping with it.
Maybe focus isn’t just resisting distraction, it’s designing an environment where the right/planned action becomes easier to do.
Attention is a scarce resource.
We manage our money, but rarely think where our attention goes
