Custodians of the Internet
A revealing and gripping investigation into how social media platforms police what we post online—and the large societal impact of these decisions
Artificial Unintelligence
A guide to understanding the inner workings and outer limits of technology and why we should never assume that computers always get it right.
A Future So Bright
We have been underselling the future. In fact, the future will be neither dystopia nor utopia (which is an actively harmful dichotomy) — it will be what we do the work to make it. And the best way to the brightest future is to focus on what we CAN do, and make sure we are working to get there.
Digital Sociology Podcast
Interviews by Chris Till with researchers of all areas of digital culture and society.
System Error
A forward-thinking manifesto from three Stanford professors—experts who have worked at ground zero of the tech revolution for decades—which reveals how big tech’s obsession with optimization and efficiency has sacrificed fundamental human values and outlines steps we can take to change course, renew our democracy, and save ourselves.
Rules for a Flat World
In Rules for a Flat World, Gillian Hadfield argues that the legal rules that currently guide global integration are no longer working. They are too slow, costly, and localized for increasingly complex advanced economies, and fail to address issues such as poverty, instability, and oppression for the billions living in the developing world. Hadfield proposes a new set of rules that enhance complex societies and economic interdependence and makes the case for building a more agile infrastructure.
Eye on AI
Eye on A.I. is a biweekly podcast, hosted by longtime New York Times correspondent Craig S. Smith. In each episode, Craig will talk to people making a difference in artificial intelligence. The podcast aims to put incremental advances into a broader context and consider the global implications of the developing technology. AI is about to change your world, so pay attention.
The Tech Humanist
The Tech Humanist started out as a manifesto, became a book, then a livestreamed show, and then a podcast. Kate O’Neill started it but a team and the community keeps it going. It’s been a movement, really. This community is about channeling the best of our human selves to develop the best technological solutions for all of us.
