The Atlas of AI with Kate Crawford

Foresight with Greg Williams

Show Notes

In this episode, we explore how AI is currently perceived and the wider societal impacts of AI that are changing how power is concentrated across the world.

Even though AI infiltrates many aspects of our lives from security, banking and retail through to climate change and politics, most people’s vision of AI is that it’s abstract and immaterial. In this podcast, we’ll discuss how AI is made in a wider sense - the environmental costs, the labour processes and the way that it classifies and shapes the world around us. Designed as an extension of WIRED's long-running live conference portfolio, these punchy, deliberate and engaging sessions reflect the same high calibre of speakers and programming featured at a WIRED event.
