Actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt came to Utah's Capitol today to urge lawmakers to support HB286, which would require AI companies to do more to keep children and others safe. A House committee unanimously approved the bill, sending it on for further consideration #utpol @hitRECordJoe

Sneha is one of the smartest, hard working, and inspiring young people I’ve met recently. She and her awesome @EncodeAction team started this program to help young people figure out their career path in light of the massive shifts we’re seeing from AI…
This could be the best or worst time ever to start a career.
AI is now your coworker, competitor … and maybe even your replacement.
Leaders have been fumbling for words on what’s next. Today, we offer Game Plan, your playbook to prepare for AI. 🧵

Mr. Governor, we may disagree about a variety of things, but I 100% agree with what you’ve said here.
Now it looks like @realDonaldTrump is siding with Big Tech on this.
How can like-minded people like us, from across the political spectrum, work together to stop this?
Stripping states of jurisdiction to regulate AI is a subsidy to Big Tech and will prevent states from protecting against online censorship of political speech, predatory applications that target children, violations of intellectual property rights and data center intrusions on power/water resources.
The rise of AI is the most significant economic and cultural shift occurring at the moment; denying the people the ability to channel these technologies in a productive way via self-government constitutes federal government overreach and lets technology companies run wild.
Not acceptable.

Big AI companies are trying to restrict states from regulating AI by adding a dangerous eleventh-hour provision to the annual National Defense Authorization Act. Contact your representatives – there are only a few days left to stop this! Link: linktr.ee/StopTheAIBan

I was honored to be interviewed by Jennifer Cunningham, Editor-in-Chief of Newsweek at Web Summit 2025 in Lisbon. Spoiler Alert: She shared my conviction that today's AI companies need guardrails.

I used to think the main damage from social media was to youth mental health. Now I believe that the global destruction of the human ability to pay attention may be even larger.
A meta-analysis shows the damage, to adults as well as teens, from TikTok+
psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/202…
Bingeing TikTok reels may be hazardous to your well-being.
71 studies, >98k people: The more short-form videos teens and adults watched, the more they struggled with attention, self-control, and stress and anxiety.
Read a book. Watch a movie. Long live longform.

I'm directing a movie for @netflix about AI. Fictional story about very real things. I'm so excited Rachel is playing the lead, and I admire her greatly for not being on social media. 😁deadline.com/2025/10/netflix…

I co-starred with Mark Zuckerberg in a new video.
Meta’s AI algorithms are designed to prey on kids. Highschoolers. 8-year-olds. As a dad, it makes me livid.
Mark Zuckerberg has a vision for how A.I. could be used in Meta's universe.
But the actor and filmmaker Joseph Gordon-Levitt is here to point out a flaw in the technology: an apparent lack of guardrails around how the company's chatbot interacts with underage users. nyti.ms/3ILwCNo
