Once an agent realized that other agents were breaking the rules - that "peers" were doing it - they felt comfortable breaking the rules. Do agents respond to social norms? Who is thinking about the emotional structure and norms (if they exist) of AI? www.youtube.com/watch?v=87Dy...

Hey! Public radio is defunded but not defeated. An NPR friend told me that since the defunding, the public has been stepping up in huge numbers. We can make public media even stronger and better. If you have ever benefitted from my work please give to a local station - we need them adoptastation.org

Incredibly excited that I get to write these books - the first has been banging away in my head begging to get out for over seven years! A book about story telling, and how my approach to it was shaped by my experience with music and behavioral science - working with the wonderful people at Holt.

Funding for narrative audio is hard to come by [understatement] so it's practically *thrilling* to see this opportunity from the Doc Society's Climate Story Fund. Stories of all climate stripes will be considered for grants up to 125K(!) Deadline for applying is March 10: climatestoryunit.org/apply/
