Flo Crivello Says A.I. Will Be Bigger Than the Internet

In April, Reason’s Natalie Dowzicky interviewed Crivello for a video about how A.I. will change the way we work.

Q: You’ve described Lindy as creating a “one-time app that then gets thrown away.” What do you mean by that?

A: When you ask Lindy to do something, she actually writes a little piece of code to perform the task for you. So, for example, if you say, “Hey, help me find 30 minutes with Bob, next week,” she’s going to write a piece of code: “I’m going to look at your calendar, I’m going to pull availabilities, I’ll compile them in an email, I’m going to send them to Bob, and I will wait for his reply.” So all of that is a mini piece of code.

Educulture Wars

THE CULTURE WAR is costing school districts billions, according to a report released in October 2024 by the UCLA Institute for Democracy, Education, and Access. The report surveyed superintendents at 467 school districts nationwide about extra expenditures they undertook because of increased conflict over culture war issues such as critical race theory, book chal- lenges, gender-related debates, and other politicized topics. The report estimates that such fights cost school districts around $3.2 billion during the 2023-2024 school year.
