AI, Surveillance, and the Erosion of Democracy

 

AI surveillance technology fascism Silicon Valley racism oligarchy authoritarianism military Israel social control

In this episode, independent journalist Antony Loewenstein explains how Silicon Valley once promoted itself as the centre of innovation and connection, designing tools that would improve the world. 

Those days are long gone with many Silicon Valley “leaders” going full MAGA, embracing Trumpism, militarisation and Israel.

What does it mean for society and democracy when AI firms are wholly unregulated? How do we reclaim sovereignty over online spaces, social media and AI? 

Are we heading into a dark time where AI and unelected Silicon Valley “leaders” are taking us to a period of unprecedented disaster capitalism?
