1:21:45What happens when artificial intelligence starts weighing in on our moral decisions? Matt Prewitt is joined by Meaning Alignment Institute co-founder Joe Edelman to explore this thought-provoking territory in examining how AI is already shaping our daily experiences and values through social media algorithms. They explore the tools developed to help individuals negotiate their values and the implications of AI in moral reasoning – venturing into compelling questions about human-AI symbiosis, the nature of meaningful experiences, and whether machines can truly understand what matters to us. For anyone intrigued by the future of human consciousness and decision-making in an AI-integrated world, this discussion opens up fascinating possibilities – and potential pitfalls – we may not have considered.

1:01:10Today, in Part I of a two-episode conversation, Matt Prewitt is joined by civic entrepreneur and Founder of Project Liberty, Frank McCourt, who is on a mission to reclaim the internet and prioritize human rights in our digital landscape. Drawing parallels between the early public oversight of television and the current state of the internet, Frank highlights the commodification of our data and identities online. He advocates for new protocols and a movement inspired by historical fights against oppression to secure genuine data rights and agency online. As we look to the future, Project Liberty's endeavors may play a crucial role. This interview is a fantastic opportunity to hear more about Frank's thinking.

1:27:09In today’s episode, Matt Prewitt engages in a thought-provoking dialogue with Tahir Amin, the Co-Founder and CEO of the Initiative for Medicines, Access, and Knowledge (I-MAK). Together, they delve into the history of the patent and trademark systems – flaws and all, especially within the pharmaceutical realm. Tahir, drawing from his experience as a former intellectual property lawyer turned reform advocate, sheds light on how these systems have been manipulated by large corporations to prolong monopolies rather than foster invention. He proposes substantial reforms to address these systemic issues, advocating for a fundamental restructuring of the patent system. This insightful conversation highlights the complexities and challenges within the patent system and the quest for a more just and equitable approach to intellectual property.

1:38:02In today’s ep, Matt Prewitt speaks with Victoria Ivanova, R&D Strategic Lead of Serpentine Arts and curator-strategist-writer, about the role art and culture have in society in preserving democratic ideals while offering critical and actionable solutions for the emerging technological era. They delve into the historical and present significance of art, its crisis of meaning in the age of accelerationism and powerful AI, and the potential for Plural Property (Partial Common Ownership) to create a more fair and dynamic market for art; thereby rethinking art ownership and promoting a more equitable future. This conversation and the collaboration between RadicalxChange and Serpentine Arts offer new perspectives on the intersection of art, technology, and society.

1:10:32Shrey Jain, an applied scientist at Microsoft Research Special Projects, speaks with Matt Prewitt on a very timely and topical subject: AI and – more specifically – the dangers it poses to the nature of natural human communication (“context collapse”). They take a deep dive into the current threats to privacy by expanding beyond the often discussed cryptographic sense into “privacy as contextual integrity”, and the immediate opportunity to embed ethical guardrails into this ever-changing realm of generative AI through possible solutions of designated verified signatures in “plural publics”. Shrey’s recently published paper co-authored with Divya Siddarth and E. Glen Weyl “Plural Publics” is linked in the episode notes.

1:40:19In this exciting episode, Matt Prewitt speaks with the inquisitive and captivating Christine Lemmer-Webber, who is CTO of the Spritely Institute and whose lifelong work focuses on advocating user freedom. This philosophical and technical discussion focuses on the many ways to look at ethical methods of building technology without usurping the free agency of others; a pluralistic view of examining technical design with different lenses. NOTE: This is a regular season episode of the RadicalxChange(s) podcast. Our mini season of "A New Era of Democracy" will continue following this episode. Things Mentioned: Spritely Institute Scheme Primer from Spritely Institute Randy Farmer! FOSS and Crafts podcast (hosted by Christine Lemmer-Webber and Dr. Morgan Lemmer-Webber) The terms " context collapse " and " collapsed contexts" (the latter coined by technology and social media scholar danah boyd in the early 2000s). Neohabitat game Christine gives a shout-out to Leilani Gilpin's paper on accountability layers (re: machine learning systems) Donate to the Spritely Institute! Funders email contact@spritely.institute . Christine Lemmer-Webber (she/they) has devoted her life to advancing user freedom. She founded the MediaGoblin project because she believes that in order to allow people to express their agency, putting networking technology in the hands of users in a way that empowers them is fundamental. Realizing that the federated social web was fractured by a variety of incompatible protocols, she co-authored and shepherded ActivityPub's standardization, which as of 2020, is the most popular and widely deployed web-based decentralized social network protocol to date. Christine established the open-source Spritely Project to solve known problems in existing centralized and decentralized social media platforms and to re-imagine the way we build networked applications - work that now continues here at the Spritely Institute under her guidance as CTO.
