How Algorithms Make Everything the Same with Carole Cadwalladr, Kyle Chayka & Yancey Strickler - Full recording
A recording from The Citizens’s live video

Musings about the future of culture, media and genuinely lots of lols :)
As one of our Citizens commented:
This was an incredible and beautiful and hopeful conversation. Never thought of cousin marriage like ever, and how it relates to us in history. To paraphrase Carole’s point, I really needed this AI palate cleanser, so thank you all.

We are on a knife-edge.
Since Trump got re-elected, there is a chilling effect. It is sweeping right across those of us who stand in opposition to Big Tech’s takeover of politics. It is happening quickly and it is serious. Journalists, academics and civil society are under attack, and philanthropy is in free fall or has retreated entirely.
Sadly, we now have an expiry date: without new funding, we won’t survive. We have exhausted every alternative and we can’t stand against the unholy alliance of "Big Tech and State" without you.
With enough of you becoming paid members, we will have a chance to keep the fight alive. Will you help us? ✊🏻
