When I started reading the recent ‘After the Feed’ report from New Public and Eli Pariser, I was skeptical about the potential for AI to disrupt social media feeds wholesale… After reading the report, some skepticism remains, but I’m excited both to investigate some of the premises they put forward, and the emerging tooling and initiatives that may provide credence to those premises.

A quick process update on the Pensieve: the Note Generator is a form that makes it simpler to consolidate my research notes, and some deployment improvements under the hood.

If you knew me in my HKS days, you may remember me as “a writer”. I took most courses the school had to offer on the subject – Writing on Policy and Politics, Op-Ed Writing, Feature Writing and Speechwriting – and even started up a student group dedicated to the practice. Of course, to be a writer, you actually have to write. Regularly. Outside of when professional necessity impels, I have been sadly slacking on that front since graduation. So I guess this blog is a commitment device, a container for thoughts that drives them forward towards better writing (forgive the mixed metaphors). In short, I need to get the reps in.

I came into this program with a reasonable idea of what I wanted to study – platform design, governance, how design choices influence behavior and beliefs, and the downstream consequences of that. But I did not yet have a clear methodological home. My training spans economics, global health, public policy, and private sector research, and I worried about becoming a “jack of all trades, master of none”. Over the course of this semester, I have started to see how that breadth might become a strength rather than a liability.

I said I’d blog regularly. That hasn’t happened. But between fielding an experiment, working with PDN, facilitating a workshop at Roblox, and making friends, it’s been a packed semester.
