In another reply to a user, she said,“It's good to remember negative comments feel louder and more numerous. If you haven't much been subjected to social media toxicity it's good to remember ur monkey brain is telling you ur gonna get kicked out of the tribe and die of starvation or rape - important to fight the monkey brain impulses that social media seeks to trigger.”
Sriram Krishnan's appointment as AI advisor in Donald Trump's cabinet has stirred reactions, bringing outsourcing and immigration concerns to the forefront amid fears of foreigners taking over American jobs.
