Breaking the Jeff Bezos model of new technology 59:07

לפני 4 ימים59:07

59:07

Contributor(s): Dr Hilary Cottam, Dr Faiza Shaheen, Professor Jack Stilgoe | New technology and AI are transforming the labour market at an unprecedented pace, often reinforcing existing inequalities and concentrating wealth in the hands of a few. It is widely believed that without intervention, this trend will continue, creating a society where a handful of tech billionaires thrive while countless others struggle with low wages and job insecurity. But is this future inevitable? What are the potential scenarios going forward? How can we rethink the way technological innovation is structured to ensure its benefits are more widely shared? Is there an alternative to a winner-takes-all model which creates billionaires like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk while pushing many into low paid work?…

Visions for the future with Daron Acemoglu 1:02:55

1:02:55

Contributor(s): Professor Daron Acemoglu | Daron Acemoglu, LSE alumnus and co-recipient of the 2024 Nobel Prize in economics, whose work has provided new insights into why there are such vast differences in prosperity between nations, will be in conversation with LSE's President Larry Kramer, on his visions for the future and will speak about Remaking Liberalism. Democracy (and in fact liberal democracy) was successful in bringing shared prosperity, reliable public services, and a voice for citizens. But there have been major problems in its agenda, hurting its support across a wide range of constituencies. The talk will present ideas about how we can bolster support for democracy, and what this involves in terms of a new conceptualisation of liberal democracy and liberalism.…

Tech and the future of the world economy 1:02:06

לפני 5 ימים1:02:06

1:02:06

Contributor(s): Stan Boland, Dr Robyn Klingler-Vidra, Kanishka Narayan | Driven in large part by the rapid growth of the tech sector, the US economy has diverged from other advanced economies. Despite significant strengths in research, much of Europe has been unable to translate this into the type of large digital firms which have become so important to the modern economy. What are the barriers to developing a thriving tech sector outside of the US? Can European states compete in the tech sector and should they try? What is the future of these advanced economies, if they cannot compete in the industries of the future?…

לפני 6 ימים1:00:12

1:00:12

Contributor(s): Professor Oriana Bandiera, Professor Margaret Levi, Professor Dani Rodrik | A generation ago, the so-called Washington Consensus laid out a series of do’s and don’ts for policymakers around the world, but it fell short by neglecting the social and institutional underpinnings indispensable for achieving sustained growth and building fairer and more cohesive societies. What new ideas —and policies— can guide us through the challenges humanity faces today?…

Beliefism: how to stop hating the people we disagree with 1:10:48

לפני 11 ימים1:10:48

1:10:48

Contributor(s): Professor Paul Dolan | Join us for this talk by LSE's Paul Dolan in which he will talk about his new book, Beliefism. Do you avoid people who are strongly against immigration? Or strongly for trans rights? Against abortion? For drug legalisation? We might like to think that we're tolerant, but many of us struggle to engage with people whose opinions differ strongly from our own-even if they might have something useful to contribute to the debate. That means we're falling victim to what behavioural scientist Paul Dolan defines as Beliefism: discrimination against those with different beliefs to us. Drawing on the evidence from across the social sciences, Dolan shows how easy it is for us to divide ourselves into opposing camps - and how harmful that can be.This recording contains strong language.…

Feminism, anti-feminism and affective economies of rage 1:28:33

לפני 17 ימים1:28:33

1:28:33

Contributor(s): Professor Sarah Banet-Weiser, Professor Angela McRobbie | In this event Sarah Banet-Weiser will theorize “mirror worlds” as an apt metaphor for the contemporary political and cultural feminist landscape. The concept of mirror worlds captures the ways in which reactionary digital politics seeks to mimic feminist politics - but also how it distorts and distracts, with the aim of confusing, splintering and weakening feminism. Within digital media culture in recent years, we have seen the rise of diverse reactionary formations which mirror feminist language, concepts and analyses, marshalling them for anti-feminist ends; these include popular misogynists, ‘manfluencers’, and ‘red-pilled’ manosphere groups such as incels, pick-up artists and male separatists. More recently, a diverse range of female-centric groups and influencers, from tradwives to ‘dark feminine’ influencers to so-called ‘reactionary feminists’ have begun to mirror the reactionary and bio-essentialist logics of the manosphere: a reflection of a reflection.…

A new data infrastructure for the social sciences? 1:26:30

לפני 18 ימים1:26:30

1:26:30

Contributor(s): Professor David B Grusky | The social sciences rely heavily on legacy data systems conceived to meet challenges of the 20th century (and earlier!). Is this the moment to build a new data system that meets new challenges and exploits new types of technology and data? The purpose of this talk is to sketch out this radical vision, how it might be realized, and the risks that it would entail.Featured image (used in source code with watermark added): Photo by Google DeepMind via Pexels: https://www.pexels.com/photo/an-artist-s-illustration-of-artificial-intelligence-ai-this-image-was-inspired-neural-networks-used-in-deep-learning-it-was-created-by-novoto-studio-as-part-of-the-visualising-ai-proje-17483873/…

Fixing education for the AI age 1:27:00

לפני 19 ימים1:27:00

1:27:00

Contributor(s): Conrad Wolfram | The recent prominence of AI has exposed major deficiencies in education. Not only how much improvement can be made in the pedagogical process with modern technology, but also how the subject-matter has diverged from what's needed in the real world. Maths education has been at the epicentre of this mismatch: required of all, seen as central to the future, yet without reformation for the technology revolution that has elevated it to such importance in society. Conrad Wolfram will explain what the problem is, how we fix it and his group's pioneering work to rebuild the curriculum to achieve "computational literacy for all". He will go further: explaining how failures in maths education should forewarn us of actions needed across the curriculum as we enter the AI age, and technology transforms our world.Featured image (used in source code with watermark added): Photo by MART PRODUCTION via Pexels: https://www.pexels.com/photo/a-person-with-curly-hair-using-vr-headset-8471958/…

Tolerance and freedom of expression 1:28:59

לפני 20 ימים1:28:59

1:28:59

Contributor(s): Professor Peter Godfrey-Smith | Join us for the Sir Karl Popper Memorial Lecture which will be delivered by Peter Godfrey-Smith who will speak about tolerance and the freedom of expression. Karl Popper suggested that tolerance in political contexts can be self-defeating. “Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance,” he said, because it allows intolerance to flourish and take over. He called this the “paradox of tolerance.” One important kind of tolerance relates to the expression of controversial ideas. Using a framework for understanding tolerance developed with Ben Kerr, Peter Godfrey-Smith will discuss problems raised by toleration of the intolerant, especially around questions of speech and expression. The framework itself doesn't dictate policies, but combined with other arguments it can provide support for a "classic liberal" treatment of free expression, where some protection is afforded to the expression of unpopular views. The framework eliminates the appearance of tension or "paradox" in some liberal combinations of attitudes.Featured image (used in source code with watermark added): Photo by Lara Jameson via Pexels: https://www.pexels.com/photo/person-holding-white-and-black-megaphone-8898633/…

Elite conflict, colonialism and democracy in the Middle East 1:28:23

לפני 24 ימים1:28:23

1:28:23

Contributor(s): Dr Mohamed Saleh | Why has democracy struggled to thrive in the Global South? In this British Academy-funded research project, Mohamed Saleh develops a new economic history of the Middle East that explains the economic roots of authoritarianism in the region. He theoretically and empirically investigates how demands for democratisation emerge from intra-elite conflicts in an agrarian economy, despite the lack of an industrial bourgeoisie that was crucial in the Global North, and how elite politics shift with colonialism, the intrusion of industrial capital, and postcolonial nationalist military coups.Featured image (used in source code with watermark added): Photo by Ali Aliakbari via Unsplash: https://unsplash.com/photos/red-plastic-container-lot-on-brown-wooden-table-7msDHQrs0s8…
