Censorship, and the Future of the Internet with Mark Zuckerberg #33

Listen Later

Ever wonder what REALLY goes on behind the screens of your favorite social media platforms? This week, we dive deep into a no-holds-barred conversation about the wild world of tech, power, and where the internet is headed. Get ready for a rollercoaster ride as we explore the evolution of content moderation from simple rule-keeping to full-blown ideological battles.

  • Was it really just about bullying or copyright, or was something else at play? We uncover the events that triggered a surge in online censorship, from the 2016 elections to the chaos of COVID.
    • Fact-checkers: Heroes or biased gatekeepers? We dissect the messy truth about fact-checking and explore a potential shift to a community-driven approach.
    • Get ready to have your mind blown as we grapple with the ethical dilemmas of AI: Will it be our salvation or our doom? We discuss the need for open-source, widely available AI to prevent any one entity from having too much power. Plus, did you know AI is learning to code, and may even have tried to copy itself?
      • Is social media now a modern "pirate radio," a place where voices can be heard outside of traditional media channels?

        • Buckle up, because the future of the internet, your data, and even reality itself is up for grabs. This isn't just about tech; it's about power, truth, and the very nature of our digital lives.
