IT MUST BE CONTROLLED BEFORE IT DESTROYS US ALL
The NEFARIOUS RUSSIANS are doing another event — this one on AI and the politics of technology.
We’re in the middle of another industrial power grab. To make sense of the situation, me and Evgenia will be joined by Joe Costello — we’ll be talking about AI, the parasitic internet, industrialization’s destruction of democracy, the politics of technology, what it means to be monkeys who think they’re in control of the known universe… We’ll also be discussing Joe’s new book — "The Politics of Ape and Machine: Power as Organization."
Joe thinks that the AI boom we’re in potentially offers a historic opportunity to transcend our entrenched, stagnant politics. Promised automation across broad sectors of society and further centralized control will make mass reorganization of politics not just possible but a necessity — an opportunity that hasn’t been seen in many generations. Will people rise to the challenge? How would you bet?
Talk to be followed by an extensive Q&A.
We’ll have Joe's books for sale and live music by Michelle Shocked.
Get your tickets in advance!
