We just had a chance to interview Carissa Véliz, author of Privacy is Power and associate professor at the Institute for Ethics in AI at the University of Oxford.
We talked about how predictive AI will make a 'meritocracy' impossible, how lifelike chat bots are designed to deceive you, and the importance of privacy in the digital age. Catch the episode on our YouTube channel or your favorite podcast app now!
Carissa Véliz is an associate professor at the Institute for Ethics in AI at the University of Oxford, a renowned author and speaker, a board member of the Proton Foundation, and a member of UNESCO's Women 4 Ethical AI.
Her new book Prophecy comes out April 21st and is now available for pre-order.
Prophecy is about how extensive use of predictive analytics is undermining our abilities to defy the odds, making systems unaccountable, and increasing risk in business and society while creating a false sense of security.

Massimo anonimato per #Attivisti, #Giornalisti #Dissidenti e #Whistleblowers.
#SESSION (Rete Loki/Decentralizzata)
Chi lo usa: Attivisti a Hong Kong, Bielorussia, Iran e gruppi di protesta in occidente.Perché: Se un attivista viene fermato, la polizia controlla il telefono. In Session non c'è il numero di telefono, non c'è la rubrica, non ci sono log di chi ha parlato con chi. È la scelta migliore se il rischio è che ti sequestrino il dispositivo e provino a risalire alla tua rete di contatti.
#SIMPLEX Chi lo usa: Whistleblowers, informatori, crypto-anarchici. Perché: È l'unica app dove davvero non esiste un "profilo utente" sul server. Se il server viene sequestrato, non c'è nulla da trovare. È usato quando la segretezza del contatto è vitale più della facilità d'uso.#EdwardSnowden #Tor #BlockChain #WilsonBright #AmnestyInternational #PrivacyGuides #VPN #Snowden #Anonymous
