This week our guest is author David Auerbach, who was a software engineer at Microsoft and Google during their rise to become the dominant companies they are today. In this episode, David and I discuss his latest publication, Meganets: How Digital Forces Beyond Our Control Commandeer Our Daily Lives and Inner Realities. David explains how, despite what many tend to think, the realm of digital technology we all occupy is beyond the control of any of us, even the major companies who are creating the technology. He suggests that, similar to the weather, it’s become a complex system that is difficult if not impossible to predict and control. This takes on us on tour of the many consequences and benefits this paradigm, including the loss of individuality, the impacts of chatGPT, the loss of a shared reality, regulatory possibilities, and more.
