*- Listened: Yanis Varoufakis, "Technofeudalism: What Killed Capitalism"
- Great interview with Yanis Varoufakis.
- Techno-feudalism.
- Ultimate goal: socialisation of cloud capital (i.e. Big tech)
- Only America and China have cloud capital.
- Glad they mention McKenzie Wark - Varoufakis says he agrees with all of it.
- Listened: Democracy for sale, Europe’s first black leader + tea with Obama
- Political donations.
- New first minister of Wales is first black leader of a country in Europe.
- Rwanda bill.
- Listened: Black Box: Episode 6 – Shut it down?
- Eliezer Yudkowsky with AI doonerism.
- Alternate positive view from Alex Hern.
- One disappointment with the series as a whole is there's no mention of environmental impact or questioning of who owns AI technology.
