Three random things!

  • Something to listen. My brilliant colleague Annika Madejska, who is something of a thought-leader in the ethics of AI, was recently interviewed in the Creative Leaders Unplugged podcast. Listen to the episode where she shares not only her thoughts about ethics and AI, but about having ADHD, or being “neuro-spicy”, as she puts it! Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube.
  • Something to read. I don’t use Facebook a lot, but one of the best groups there is the Dull Men’s Club®️. People make long posts with images about mundane stuff they’re excited about – think parking lots, drain covers, and envelopes – and the general vibe just is so supportive compared to your usual toxicity of the internet. As an inside joke, the images are often expected to contain a banana for scale. 🍌
  • Something to watch. Last Week Tonight with John Oliver is an American half an hour long news satire late-night talk show with British sarcasm. Oliver delivers commentary and deep dives into all kinds of topical matters, often about the government, big companies, or public figures. It’s my main source of information into what’s wrong with the USA. You might want to start with, say, the episode about data brokers , which explains that if you’re using a free product, then you are in fact the product.
