Gerry’s Substack articles and essays unpack the ethical, emotional, and societal consequences of AI, offering a nuanced perspective that neither rejects nor blindly embraces technology. He challenges parents, educators, and professionals to consider not just what AI can do, but what it should do, and how to maintain our humanity while partnering with powerful tools.
