Having the ability to choose what to focus on is the most necessary skill in the digital age. Your attention is a scarce resource, use it wisely.
Our task is to create our own mental framework to support decision making. The only way to do this is to understand and be confident in our values, and purse only those actions which align with them

Yes, if I understand correctly, the seat of decision making must be value based (lest it is blind) and internally yoked to our individual moral agency. This indeed requires careful discernment and cultivation of those values, and moreover the ability to reliably ensure alignment.

I entirely agree. Without an understanding and (hopefully warranted) confidence in one's values on which decisions are based, one is effectively rudderless in that regard, bound to the whims of weather rather than remaining on course and adapting the sails with value coherence.

In your pointing toward 'our own mental framework' I am inspired, because it alludes to the fact that the diversity of such frameworks throughout a population is important if uniform fragility is to be avoided.

I would only like to expand the domain of 'mental' here to include a possible symbiosis with cognitive prostheses, DSS, but even tools to aid value development. There are a perils, not the least of which are info security concerns in using computers for deeply private thought...

What a fascinating idea! So digital assistants attuned to our own wants and needs, helping us overcome our primal susceptibilities to distraction? Our symbiosis with technology has such untapped potential... I am excited for the future!

but I reckon the vast majority of such risks can be adequately mitigated by good engineering and design.
