Silicon Valley’s Dangerous Militarization of AI w/ journalist Peter Byrne (G&R 391)

from Green & Red: Podcasts for Scrappy Radicals · host Green and Red

There is a long history of industry heavy war profiteers like Lockheed Martin and Northrup Grumman having deep ties within elite political and military circles. This has led to trillions being spent on weapons manufacturing. With the rise of Silicon Valley and artificial intelligence (AI) in our society, we're seeing those same elites build out AI for military and geopolitical purposes. In our latest, we talk with Project Censored and award-winning investigative journalist Peter Byrne about his groundbreaking 10-part exposé on the dangerous militarization of artificial intelligence—and the profiteering that drives it. Bio//Peter Byrne is an award-winning investigative science reporter who has long uncovered corruption at the nexus of science and industry. Now, in partnership with Project Censored, Byrne has launched Military AI Watch, a groundbreaking ten-part series that will run monthly on Project Censored.——————Outro- "Green and Red Blues" by MoodyLinks//+ Military AI Watch (https://bit.ly/3ZjLRCh)+ Peter’s website: https://www.peterbyrne.infoFollow Green and Red// +G&R Linktree: ⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/greenandredpodcast⁠⁠⁠ +Our rad website: ⁠⁠⁠https://greenandredpodcast.org/⁠⁠⁠ + Join our Discord community (https://discord.gg/3a6AX7Qy)+Follow us on Substack (https://greenandredpodcast.substack.com)+Follow us on Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/podcastgreenred.bsky.social)Support the Green and Red Podcast// +Become a Patron at https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast +Or make a one time donation here: ⁠⁠⁠https://bit.ly/DonateGandR⁠⁠⁠ Our Networks// +We're part of the Labor Podcast Network: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.laborradionetwork.org/⁠⁠ +We're part of the Anti-Capitalist Podcast Network: linktr.ee/anticapitalistpodcastnetwork +Listen to us on WAMF (90.3 FM) in New Orleans (https://wamf.org/) + Check us out!
