This Machine Kills
@machinekillspod
podcast on tech and political economy /// agitprop against innovation and capital /// hosted by @jathansadowski and @bigblackjacobin, produced by @braunestahl


🚨Premium – 458. Seduced by the Slop Tsunami🚨 We argue why, rather than just be eroded into acquiescence by an overwhelming tsunami of AI, rather than being bowled over and washed out to sea, you should never give these systems and their booster the benefit of the doubt.



🚨455. The Anti-Anti-Anti-Data-Centers Social Club🚨 We deconstruct some confused arguments – from the left – against moratoriums for data centres. We push back on the false dichotomy, faulty assumptions, rhetorical leaps, and pretzel logic that underpin these arguments.

🚨Premium – 452. Lady Luck is the World Spirit🚨 We talk about a new innovation in focus groups and public polling called “silicon sampling”—or a new way models which claim to represent the world are actually engines that shape reality. Plus, our grand theory of the World Casino


🚨451. Do Not Become Addicted to Electrons (ft. Tim Sahay, Kate Mackenzie)🚨 From @polycrisis, we're joined by @kmac and @70sBachchan to chat about the war in Iran, fossil fuel demand destruction, forced energy transitions, plus much more.
