Veteran financial reporter Jacob Silverman joins Alex Hanna to discuss the tech world's reactionary turn.
Co-presented with Gray Area
With bylines in The Nation, the New Republic, & The Baffler, financial reporter Jacob Silverman has had his eyes on Silicon Valley for years. Now, in his deeply researched & all-too-timely new book Gilded Rage: Elon Musk & the Radicalization of Silicon Valley, he traces the tech world's reactionary turn. Elon Musk, as Silverman illustrates, is only the most recent & high-profile example of this rightward lurch. In what Kirkus has called a book to trouble your dreams, Silverman traces the promise of political influence, the enticements of deregulation, & the lure of technofascism. Silverman's partner in this vital conversation is Alex Hanna, Director of Research at the Distributed AI Research Institute & co-author of The AI Con. Doors at 6:30pm. $10 adv / $15 door
