The Danger and Promise of the Algorithm

Aaron Bastani, Craig Gent

Since the birth of the internet, we've experienced what it means to have information at our fingertips and connect with whomever we want. For many, AI is the logical next step. Craig Gent, author of 'Cyberboss' and North of England Editor at Novara Media speaks with Novara Media co-founder Aaron Bastani to discuss how algorithms are not only running what we see on our phones but are beginning to run our society as a whole. Join them for an in-depth conversation on the dangers and promise of algorithms and how they will change and control the next decade.

"[Craig Gent] cuts the algorithm down to size." - Sarah Jaffe, author of Work Won't Love You Back

"Bastani’s genius is to see the future with crisp clarity." — Paul Mason, author of Postcapitalism
