How Society Bears AI’s Costs

23 Oct 2025

Description

AI is leading the economic charge. In fact, without the massive investments in AI, our economy would look a lot worse right now. But what are the social and political costs that we incur? My guest, Karen Yeung, a professor at Birmingham Law School and School of Computer Science, argues that investments in AI our consolidating power while disempowering the rest of society. Our individual autonomy and our collective cohesion are simultaneously eroding. We need to push back - but how? And on what grounds? To what extent is the problem our socio-economic system or our culture or government (in)action? These questions and more in a particularly fun episode (for me, anyway).Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
