109 How AI Already Controls Us, Pt. 1
from The Computer Exorcist Podcast Hosted by Marc-Anthony Arena
Tonight on CEP! I've been saying that AI could possibly ruin the world - but at the very least, it'll make us dumber and keep us isolated in pods, feeding us data and harvesting our behavior. Network engineer turned author Monty LeBlanc joins us to explain how AI is already in control, doing just this. He explains how those algorithms, the curated "For You" recommendations, and your Facebook feed, are all DESIGNED to keep you reading, watching, and scrolling. He exposes how shadow banning works, and how we're already in the Matrix, except in reality we each get our own algorithmic simulation. The few techies who are aware of the impending threats are too scared to say something, lest they lose their job. However, he and I and maybe some of you, are exposing what's going on. He uses humor, snark, and analogies to explain everything in Plain English (sound familiar?) and even gives translations at the end of every section for Gen Z readers! Buy his book Somnium Pandorae on Amazon, and mine at thecomputerexorcist.com, and stay tuned for Part 2 next week!
