Should be a good listen.

really awesome episode

La puñetera #motonormatividad.

Excellent, wide-ranging episode on the various negative effects cars have had on humans and cities. I loved hearing about Superman’s hatred of reckless drivers in the early days of the comic. Vehicular homicide is a greater evil than any supervillain.

"The dependence on automotive infrastructure is robbing all of us, at every stage of our lives, of the normal developmental milestones and pleasures, and the things we need to be healthy."

The company I've been working for almost 9 years, was bought up by a major car dealership company I should flood them w/ this TWSU episode on my last day of work 😏

"Children have been robbed of childhood by cars"

Thanks @parismarx.com for having us on to discuss LIFE AFTER CARS. I’m a longtime @techwontsave.us listener so this was a treat.

Great episode!

Tech companies have plenty of bad ideas they say will improve transportation — but the car remains a menace. @brooklynspoke.bsky.social and @sgoodyear.bsky.social join @parismarx.com to discuss the many ways cars harm society and why that must change. Full ep: techwontsave.us/episode/301_...

Colonialismo tecnológico. Otra forma de dominación de EEUU sobre el resto del mundo. Apostar siempre a la soberanía tecnológica en la medida de lo posible es clave.

Futher listening...

Tech Won’t Save Us is celebrating 300 episodes! 🎉 This week @parismarx.com took over the show to discuss an issue that’s been motivating a lot of his work this year: the problem with our dependence on US tech and why we need digital sovereignty! Full ep: techwontsave.us/episode/300_...

Always a good listen.

lol @jomc.bsky.social was just on @techwontsave.us talking about this: techwontsave.us/episode/299_...

I was selfish and took the milestone episode to explain why we must get off US tech, some options that are already available to us, but also why our governments need to step up. We can’t keep allowing the US government and Silicon Valley billionaires to have so much power over us!

This episode of @techwontsave.us talks about how some people are sabotaging these robots by leaving bags of dog poop on them. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Silicon Valley wants to make cities more efficient by taking away anything that makes them enjoyable. This week @jomc.bsky.social joins @parismarx.com to discuss why robotaxis and delivery bots aren’t solving any real problems with transport and cities. Full ep: techwontsave.us/episode/299_...

The AI industry wants us to believe AI superintelligence is the real threat from generative AI. But that narrative was crafted to distract from the many ways genAI is being used to tear our societies apart, as we saw this week when a deepfake video rocked the Irish election. It must be reined in.

Since I heard the idea that "surveillance used to be a side-effect; now it is the product" in @techwontsave.us with @hypervisible.blacksky.app, I cannot help finding it everywhere I read. For instance, this is the new "Claude Memory" by Anthropic.

City folk, enclosed by the hollowed aesthetic of a city. #NetworkState

Worth listening to @techwontsave.us on how news is increasingly consumed through social media and now "AI" platforms www.techwontsave.us/episode/288_... and then reading this BBC piece...

always such a pleasure to chat with @jomc.bsky.social, especially on subject like robotaxis, delivery robots, the labor behind it all, and what they’re doing to neighborhoods. don’t miss our chat!

One of the take away listening to this is how once again we don't think of people with disabilities, delivery robots tearing down the middle of the sidewalk #disablityawareness #robots #ai

A must listen for anyone interested how AI creates new surveillance opportunities.

Just talked about this on the most recent episode of @techwontsave.us tech.yahoo.com/ai/deals/art...

Tech Won’t Save Us is vital in this particular moment. I highly recommend the podcast, in general. But this episode — PHEW — it’s very good.

Another fantastic episode with a guest whose work I pay a lot of attention to. Great discussion.

World of Cyberpunk dystopia is arriving here, slowly, but still arriving...

Great episode. I’ve got a colleague who recently started wearing a pair of the meta glasses and it is actually quite unnerving. Government is so far behind on the useful regulation and also willingly complicit in helping tech companies get away with all sorts when it comes to our privacy.

Inspired somewhat by this episode and @hypervisible.blacksky.app's ideas of #LuxurySurveillance in general, I sold my Garmin watch and I feel so much freer already!

Eine der besten Episoden dieses klasse Podcasts. Von smart glasses über genAI zum Überwachungskapitalismus und zurück.

A great podcast about the surveillance the tech companies want to see in the world. Also, apparently there are tv ads for AI.

Listening to @techwontsave.us while waiting for the kid’s softball practice to end with my plain old glasses and appropriately themed socks for this conversation between @hypervisible.blacksky.app and @parismarx.com on the proliferation of “smart” glasses. Listen at: techwontsave.us/episode/298_...

This is like that Doctor Who episode Dot and Bubble. That was one of the dystopian episodes.

This was really clarifying--worth a listen.

"[Current design] cannot be removed from the fact that these are some of the most extractive & oppressive companies to ever exist...If you look at what may be the positive use-cases...or the benefits of these things, it can't be removed from the current situation, & the history of these companies."

What can I say other than everyone should be listening to @hypervisible.blacksky.app not just on smart glasses, but on everything else too. One of the most insightful tech researchers out there. Don’t miss our conversation!

i have been at parties where people had these things on voluntarily and were excited about them the way 10 year old me might've been about a Lego set excellent way to tell me "i am not your friend and never will be"

I’ll be damned…

refuse

Wow having it laid out so simply, it's horrifying what the tech bros are trying to do, a must listen

Mais um ótimo episódio, dessa vez sobre os "óculos inteligentes" da Meta e outras marcas. A sacada de estarmos em uma terceira onda, passando de "os algoritmos recomendam conteúdo que você vai gostar" pra "os algoritmos dizem o que fazer pra você ser melhor / mais eficiente" é muito interessante...

I'm sure this has been said by others, but wasn't this the plot of Ready Player One's main villain?

This was an amazing episode to wake up to today!!

Like we don’t have enough brainrot already…

The comparison in this episode of gen AI to plastic is so good and so intuitive.
