Man and the Machine - Episode 2: Fertiliser for Algorithms
In Episode 2 of Man and the Machine, recorded mid-October 2025, Tom and Ani pick up the thread on AI’s comfy takeover and dive straight into tech’s sneaky grip, how free apps turn us into the product, SEO stuffs lies to the top of Google, and endless scrolls hijack our dopamine for cheap likes.
No illusions here: we’re not slaves, just lazy accomplices normalising the invasion, one sponsored “fact” at a time. From weaponised searches to the death of real self-education, this no-holds-barred chat calls out the money trail and asks if we’re ready to opt out… or just hit refresh. Raw, real, and a little ruthless—because the algorithm’s waiting, but so are we.
