She really gets straight to the point about social media, I mean who wouldn't agree that it's done more harm than good? Interesting how she mentions some young people choosing not to participate, feels like they're finally waking up to its downsides 
. The part about AI and regulation is super timely, we need to be careful with tech's growth 
I think Melinda Gates is spot on about social media 
it's crazy how much of a wild card it can be - one minute you're connecting with people, the next you're getting sucked into this rabbit hole of drama and negativity 
. I mean, don't get me wrong, there are some super cool platforms out there that do promote positivity and community 
but overall, I think she's right in saying it's had more harm than good for a lot of people 
.
. And omg, altering kids' access to phones at a young age? 
.
I love being able to work from anywhere and have more flexibility in my schedule 
. But at the same time, I totally get what Melinda is saying about needing better work-life balance 
.
it's true that it can be toxic 
but I also think she's being kinda harsh 
maybe we need to find a balance 
instead of completely banning it? 
that could make a huge difference 
anyway, i think its great that shes talkin about the need 4 better work-life balance tho we all need 2 prioritize our mental health & not let work consume us 
. As we continue to navigate the complexities of remote work, it's essential that we prioritize human connection and well-being
