Show notes

The co-founder of the Human Technology lays down his megapixel provocation and challenges us to stop thinking about AI as being so different that we can’t control it.

Panellists Digital Rights Watch chair Lizzie O’Shea, ABC National AI Reporter Cam Wilson and Per Capita’s Peter Lewis also discuss

  • Can Automated Decision Making work for the people?
  • Is the Social Media Ban making things worse?
  • Is surveillance-busting ‘adversarial fashion’ the new black?
