The Hidden Humans Behind Artificial Intelligence & the Sociopathology of Elon Musk

Education, The Creative Process: Educators, Writers, Artists, Activists Talk Teachers, Schools & Creativity - A podcast by Educators, Writers, Artists, Activists Talk Teaching & Learning: Creative Process Original Series

In this episode on Speaking Out of Place podcast Professor David Palumbo-Liutalks with Sarah T. Roberts about the hidden humans behind Artificial Intelligence, which is reliant on executives and business managers to direct AI to promote their brand and low-level, out-sourced, and poorly paid content managers to slog through masses of images, words, and data before they get fed into the machine. They talk about the cultural, sociological, financial, and political aspects of AI. They end by taking on Elon Musk and the DOGE project, as an emblem of how Silicon Valley executives have embraced a brand of tech rapture that disdains and destroys democracy and attacks the idea that people can take care of each other, independent of sociopathic libertarianism.
