Thanks for another insightful article Karen! I had just re-read Sherry Turkle's "Alone Together" which raises concerns about the virtual emotional attachment that robots offer to children and the elderly. The book was written in 2011 and it makes me shudder to see the further developments you linked here.

Oh, that's an excellent article! Wonderful about what you saw on the plane! People had the books and presented with no technological alternative, they took them out. Very hopeful!

And - yes to books! I just recently wrote a piece on "Rehabilitating Ferals of the Digital Age" https://schooloftheunconformed.substack.com/p/rehabilitating-ferals-of-the-digital which turns to books to retrain deep attention (and also includes lots of practical classical vocabulary study and books lists:)
