Summary
Larry is joined by Trisha Prabhu, who created the Rethink app at 13 to prompt users to pause before posting potentially harmful words. Now in law school, Prabhu leads Rethink Citizens, a nonprofit focused on K–12 education and empowerment through a youth incubator for ideas to improve the internet, training students to deliver social media safety workshops for parents, and digital literacy education. They discuss digital parenting strategies for young children, the limits and drawbacks of social media bans versus common-sense regulation, and how AI shifts risks toward deepfakes, truth and democracy concerns, and platform liability. They also address young-adult issues like harassment, reliance on social media for connection, online activism, and building resilience after harm.
