    S3E09 The Digital Fork in the Road
    May 3 2022
    As the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence become an ever present reality in our day-to-day lives, we will be faced with an existential choice about how we organize our societies that may very well determine whether we will live in the most authoritarian centralized social structures the world has ever known or whether we create a highly evolved human society by embracing a very different way to design how we socially organize ourselves.

    S3E08 What Big Tech Could Learn from the NTSB
    Apr 26 2022

This understanding could greatly improve our social discourse if Big Tech could learn to adopt the mindset of the NTSB. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    S3E06 Knowing When to Break the Rules
    Apr 12 2022
    Rules are important because they serve as guideposts for reliable social interaction. Rules are practical tools for maintaining order in complex societies. But there are times where the rules should be superseded by a higher principle, especially when you are reasonably sure that it’s the right thing to do and where there’s a clear principle at stake that would be harmed if the rule was followed.

    S3E05 Redesigning Algorithms to Aggregate Collective Intelligence
    Apr 5 2022
    What if the tech companies redesigned their algorithms to identify what’s most important to differing perspectives by honoring the principle that all voices matter, hearing all points of view without prejudice, and integrating the best elements of all perspectives into innovative breakthrough solutions that could move us beyond our differences?

    S3E03 The Antidote to Tribalism
    Mar 22 2022
    One of the great ironies of the digital revolution is how social media platforms have managed to divide us into a collection of fractious tribes that are wholly incapable of even basic compromises. This fomenting tribalism has become troublesome as mutual accusations of bias among all the various clans have justified a plummet into a lack of basic civil behavior. How is it that technological innovations that held so much promise for broadening human horizons have instead amplified the worst attributes of human nature? But more importantly, what can we do to restore the promise? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
