NB : la VF est disponible si vous ne comprenez pas anglais. Part 1/2 : Technology, Collective Intelligence and Political Resilience with Audrey Tang, Former Taiwanese MinisterAudrey Tang is Taiwan's former Minister of Digital Affairs and now serves as its cyber ambassador. A self-taught hacker and Taoist thinker, she found herself at the heart of a unique democratic experiment in a country under constant geopolitical pressure.Why do our democracies seem so fragile today, when we have never had so much information and so many communication tools at our disposal?Mistrust, polarization, a sense of collective powerlessness.Beyond parties and leaders, it is perhaps our way of producing meaning and making decisions together that is faltering, in an ecosystem dominated by private platforms and now by artificial intelligence.In Taiwan, another path has been explored: viewing democracy as a living system, capable of learning, listening, and evolving, even under pressure from disinformation and cyberattacks.In this episode, we talk about technology, emotions, collective intelligence, and trust.And what democracy could become if we fundamentally rethink the way we connect with each other.00:00 intro01:43 Mass Extinction Awareness02:19 Audrey Tang's Journey6:42 Legacy and Power Sharing13:59 Examining Democratic Struggles20:00 Purpose of Democracy22:24 The Role of Representation27:03 Collective Intelligence in Action29:38 The Sunflower Movement36:03 Digital Tools for Democracy40:05 Bridging Polarization46:18 Trust and Governance49:14 The Living Democracy53:13 Scaling New Protocols57:29 Redemption in Social MediaRecorded on Nov 7th 2025Retrouvez tous les épisodes et les résumés sur www.sismique.frSismique est un podcast indépendant créé et animé par Julien Devaureix.👉 Suivez Sismique sur : Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Linkedin👉 Rejoignez le serveur DISCORD SISMIQUE👉 Abonnez-vous à la newsletter👉 SOUTENEZ le projet !Tipeee : https://fr.tipeee.com/sismiquepodcastPaypal : https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/juliendevaureixVirement direct : contact via le formulaire sur le site Hébergé par Acast.
