Jeremy Gross on the Use and Abuse of Cybernetic Theory

Please support our patreon.  For early and ad-free episodes, members-only content, and more.Jeremy Gross is a cybernetic tikkun olamunist living north of Boston, Massachusetts. He is interested in collaborative workspaces that incorporate peer-to-peer and empathetic practices to subsume alienated labor. We chat about his paper on Stafford Beer.   But we also talk about bad incentive structures in tech, misunderstanding machine learning, and limits of AI.  We go into Jewish and Yiddish culture as well as communists of that ilk. Abandon all hope ye who subscribe here.   Crew:Host: C.
