    The Renewable Energy Shell Game Jan 01, 2024
    Show notes

    Buying “renewable energy certificates” is a way for companies to claim to reach their renewable energy goals—instead of, say, putting solar panels on their roof. One of the most enthusiastic consumers of RECs is the federal government. But is this ostensibly environmentally-friendly system actually standing in the way of true sustainability?

    Who’s Afraid of A.I.? | 2023 In Review Dec 31, 2023
    Show notes

    While the What Next: TBD team spends some time with their families during the holidays, we revisit some of 2023’s biggest, strangest, and best stories. Regularly scheduled programming resumes in January.


    Artificial intelligence—as it already exists today—is drawing from huge troves of surveillance data and is rife with the biases built into the algorithm, in service of the huge corporations that develop and maintain the systems. The fight for the future doesn’t look like war with Skynet; it’s happening right now on the lines of the Writer’s Guild strike.


    Guests:

    Meredith Whittaker, president of the Signal Foundation, co-founder of the AI Now Institute at NYU

    Originally aired July 16th, 2023.
