THE WEBSITES NOT READY YET BUT FEEL FREE TO SNOOP AROUND

  • A video essay by Jimmy McGee, where he explains AI, the harm it’s causing and the harm it is destined to cause.

    These are the chapters, they synopsise the video better than I could:

    AI is not magic
    AI is not free
    AI is not going away
    AI is not creative
    AI is not intelligent
    AI is not objective
    AI is another cruel algorithm


  • This six part documentary series by Adam Curtis is one of my favourite documentaries ever. I think that all his work is brilliant but this one is like an amalgamation of all his previous works into one timeline of the worlds economic superpowers and the rise of technology.

  • This documentary follows Alexei Navalny, an opposing Russian leader to Putin. It’s a fly on the wall documentary that is basically a thriller, following Navalny and the events related to his poisoning leading up to his imprisonment.

    His story is very sad but it does give hope for what a post-Putin Russia may look like.

    If you are struggling to watch it, here is my suggestion.
