We are excited to have SchoolAI as a sponsor for the Summer of AI Series on Transformative Principal. Please visit schoolai.com to save your teachers 10 hours per week. What does it mean to maintain humanity?  - To practice the forgotten art of being the ordinary.  - We are ok as the messy, complex meat machines we were born with. Don’t have to be personal brands. Don’t have to elevate or project or photoshop.  - Reverence for the base model.- Technology does train us, regardless of what we think about that.- Have an understanding of the basis of what we have as a human.- We’ve lost the drive to imagine apart from entertainment and convenience.- We don’t have a vision of what a profile of a graduate looks like.- We need imagination for education, housing, energy.. the areas that would benefit ordinary people the most  - 9 beatitudes of media technology- “Let’s just wait until the data is conclusive”- Kayfabe vs. Collective journey- Jerry Springer - Brilliant politician in Cincinnati.- Personal brand prohibited him from being a good politician- Hero’s journey is tiring.- Collective journey doesn’t have heroes. It has conductors: Ted Lasso, Encanto, and Barbie.  - Teams taking down misunderstandings, and systems.- Not individual villains. People perpetuating those systems are redeemed not banished.  - It’s a lot easier to ban an avatar.- Let’s teach kids new modalities. Don’t perpetuate the hero’s journey. Create collective journeys.About CJ CasciottaCJ Casciotta brings more than a decade of experience as a results-driven creative strategist and award-winning media producer.Seen by many as a trusted voice on 21st-century cultural shifts, he’s consulted and developed campaigns for presidential candidates, IPOs, startups, and Fortune 500s alike, partnering with notable brands such as MGM Studios, Delta Airlines, Sesame Street, Lululemon, and The United Nations Foundation.
