“While the very real concerns which animate popular emotions at the polls cannot & should not be dismissed or diminished, the dissonant role of philosophy is to go against the grain of political immediacy to insist on inconvenient truths.” —Nathan Gardels #geopolitics #nationalism #climatechange

For my latest piece in Noema Magazine (and first as a contributing writer!), I write about how viruses have helped make us human, providing some of the raw material for everything from our big brains to our placentas. https://lnkd.in/eF9T_tia

This essay by Benjamin H. Bratton - author of the book "The Stack" on sovereignty and software - for Noema Magazine - is one of the most thought-provoking pieces I've read about #AI this year. In it, he links our cultural responses to AI to Elizabeth Kübler-Ross's work on five stages of #grief, putting forward archetypes for each of Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance. He then flips the script, and advocates for a "no grief" stance to AI that, in a very Haraway-esque twist, seeks to blur the boundaries between humanity, life and technology. A must read. "It does mean, however, that human intelligence is not what human intelligence thought it was all this time. It is both something we possess but which possesses us even more. It exists not just in individual brains, but even more so in the durable structures of communication between them, for example, in the form of language." https://lnkd.in/gpjbJ7WK

Tech overlords have turned us all into cloud serfs: the right to a bit of time each day when one is not for sale has all but vanished. It's time for a rebellion, Yanis Varoufakis argues. #bigtech #technofeudalism #capitalism #liberalism https://lnkd.in/gMwNzHU2
