Not too long ago someone posted this: https://www.wired.com/story/joi-ito-ai-and-bus-routes/ https://www.wired.com/story/joi-ito-ai-and-bus-routes/ Basically, Mr. Ito describes his role in torpedoing a change to bus routes that would have had significant benefits for most students in a school district. He wrote a shitty op ed about it and got the plan cancelled without ever interviewing the people who had designed it. He had thought they hadn't engaged the community, but in fact there was a lengthy community engagement process that led up to the plan. The parents who were mad were wealthy parents who would have had slightly less convenient bus schedules.
Anyway, in this retrospective he never apologizes for his blunder. I'm not really sad to see him go. He seems like a bad character.
