Welcome to our debut episode of “Power On, Power Off,” a podcast about technology, people, power, and whatever else we’re in a mood about.
In this inaugural episode (recorded two months before posting, we'll get better at this!) we focus on the latest discourse about artificial intelligence, the future of human safety and security, and AI’s impacts on democracy, information, and civic participation in a major global election year. We cover:
- Rhetorical framings of AI
- “Vagueness by design”
- AI development, environmental impacts, and exploitative labor practices
- Predictions for AI, information, and elections in 2024
