"How to Think About AI": Cory Doctorow on Big Tech, Understanding AI, Labor Automation & More
Democracy Now! speaks with science fiction author, activist and journalist Cory Doctorow about AI and his latest book, "The Reverse Centaur's Guide to Life After AI: How to Think About Artificial Intelligence — Before It's Too Late."
Doctorow comments on AI's "bad unit economics" and the connection between automation and labor. "When labor drives automation, it's usually in service to making the product better, and when capital drives automation, it's usually in service to making more of the product," says Doctorow.
