[PREVIEW] Musk Vs Starmer : The Dawn Of Posting ft. Chris Stokel-Walker

Ten Thousand Posts

We’re joined by journalist Chris Stokel-Walker, author of How AI Ate The World: A Brief History of Artificial Intelligence – and Its Long Future, to talk about the UK’s responses to the recent nation-wide race riots, and in particular, how it’s dealing with a certain tech CEO spreading overtly racist disinformation. Chris talks about the Online Safety Act and where it might be expanded in the aftermath of the riots, the challenges of prosecuting Elon Musk, and why any chance of avoiding future outbreaks would require the government to understand social media use through the lens of public health, rather than a problem requiring more technological solutions.
