Think Again: Keith Whelpley

We're joined today by intermittent co-host and always delightful guest, Keith Whelpley. Our conversation spans considerations of Artificial Intelligence, censorship, free speech, hate speech, unpopular but protected speech, and cancel culture. We touch on journalism, media. social media, human intelligence, biological non-human intelligence, and of course machine or artificial intelligence. This exploratory conversation points to the chilling adverse effects of cancel culture censorship upon our thinking, our language, or democracy, our very sense of humanity and community. We give some attention to the intersectionality of artificial intelligence and free speech, how it affects our critical and nuanced thinking, our tribal and cult thinking, and how we interpret, think, feel and speak about events past and present.
