Our CEO, Jack Brewster, recently spoke at Mill Valley Public Library about how phones, social media, and AI are changing the way we learn and speak about the world around us. Jack argued that we are in the midst of what he calls a “great information devolution,” where the abundance of information and the speed at which it is delivered are overwhelming our ability to think critically, engage meaningfully, and maintain a deep understanding of complex issues. He challenged the audience to consider how these shifts are affecting our brains, our conversations, and our ability to make informed decisions—and called on everyone to rethink their relationship with technology to reclaim their attention and agency.

The presidential debate is tonight, and if you’re feeling behind, you’re not alone. Most people don’t read the news every day, which means many will be playing catch-up during the debate. One way we’re looking to assist with this problem? Timelines. Our timelines will help you quickly grasp key topics—like Kamala Harris’s stance on immigration—by connecting the dots between major events, highlighting what’s important, and offering in-depth exploration, all in one place. Immigration has been a major topic in this election, and understanding it is crucial for having an informed discussion about the debate. But if you Google “Kamala and immigration,” you’re met with an endless list of blue links. If you ask an AI chatbot, you’re often faced with generalized summaries. If you go directly to a news outlet, you might get fragmented information spread across various articles. That’s where Newsreel’s timelines come in. Below, you’ll find a mockup of a timeline that covers all of the key moments leading up to the debate concerning Kamala Harris and immigration.
