José Marichal is exceptionally good at making the case for why we should all become algorithmic problems and also much more reflective of our engagement with social media.

Predictable, with José Marichal

Hi everyone, my name is Mél Hogan and I’m a critical media studies scholar based in Canada. I’m working on a project called The Data Fix through a series of conversations with scholars, thinkers, and feelers. Together we explore the significance of living in a world of data, and especially the growing trend of “digital humans” in the form of chatbots, holograms, deepfakes, ai images and videos, and even tech that revives the dead. The conversations are minimally edited, and serve as an archive of the collective thinking and feeling that is going into the Data Fix project. Please see thedatafix.net for more details and show notes. Thank you so much for listening.&nbsp; Cover art by <a href="https://www.instagram.com/oonaode/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Oona Ode</a>.<hr> Hosted on Acast.
