Future Perfect: Ed Zitron On The Reality Of AI & Silicon Valley
To understand where we’re at and where we’re headed in the world of AI, guest host Anna Strempel speaks with host of podcast ‘Better Offline’ Ed Zitron about how AI is being used by big tech companies, and the concerns about its present and future.
“All of this feels so unstable, all of this feels really bad. But when you look at what these companies are saying, they’re telling you ‘It’s the future, it’s the golden age’ … when the actual outcomes, the actual reality … are all bad and all suggest that we are actually hurtling towards a wall at high speed.”
