RadicalxChange ReplayedData Dignity | Jaron Lanier Interviewed by Avital BalwitData Dignity is a realignment of the economics of the internet that will improve the outlook for people as algorithms and robots get better, while at the same time making those technologies work better. The basic idea is paying people more often for the value they create in the online world. Right now consumers typically barter their efforts and data online in exchange for services, but the advertising model which finances this arrangement has motivated poor quality results and has not been robust during an economic downturn. Instead, we propose to pay people in more situations, in order to...

Fortt Knox#Nevertweet: Time to Cut Back on Social? Farhad Manjoo, Jeff Jarvis, Chris Moody, Jaron LanierApple this week pulled a Facebook app from the App Store. It’s called Facebook Research, and its purpose was to let Facebook watch everything that users did on the phone. Apple says the snooping app is too invasive, even if users had consented to letting Facebook watch their every move.
Which raises the question: How much social media is too much? Are we giving these platforms too much data? Are we posting stuff too quickly without thinking about it? Is it time to step back?

TuneIn | TechnologyHow we need to remake the internet | Jaron LanierIn the early days of digital culture, Jaron Lanier helped craft a vision for the internet as public commons where humanity could share its knowledge -- but even then, this vision was haunted by the dark side of how it could turn out: with personal devices that control our lives, monitor our data and feed us stimuli. (Sound familiar?) In this visionary talk, Lanier reflects on a "globally tragic, astoundingly ridiculous mistake" companies like Google and Facebook made at the foundation of digital culture -- and how we can undo it. "We cannot have a society in which, if...

Wer ist ein Staatsbürger? Was ist eine Person? Können Flüchtlinge Bürger sein? Werden Unternehmen zu Personen? Zu Menschen, Individuen bürgerlichen Rechts. Oder noch anders: Werden Computer zu Personen? Der Gedanke scheint absurd. Doch seitdem große Technologiekonzerne in das Rennen um die „Künstliche Intelligenz“ eingestiegen sind, müssen diese grundlegenden Fragen eindeutig beantwortet werden. Es muss geklärt werden, wer zur Gesellschaft der Zukunft gehört und was die Staatsbürgerschaft ausmacht.

The Gray Area with Sean IllingJaron Lanier’s case for deleting social media right nowDuring my book leave, I took a social media sabbatical. No reading Facebook. No reading Twitter. And you know what? It was great. I felt able to think more clearly, and listen more closely, than had been true in years. I’m not sure that was all because of social media — I was also hanging back from much of the news — but I’m certain the blackout helped. The experience of coming back, and reopening myself to the feeds and the tweets and the algorithms, has been profound. It feels like, suddenly, someone is following me around and shouting in my ea...

The InterviewComputer scientist and author - Jaron LanierThe internet is perhaps the defining technological advance of the last fifty years. It has opened up a new world of possibilities, but what if it also represents an existential threat to humanity? That is the alarming possibility raised by computer scientist Jaron Lanier. He is no tech-phobic sensationalist; he is a Silicon Valley insider who was a hugely influential pioneer in Virtual Reality and a consultant to some of the biggest tech giants. In what ways are we sowing the seeds of our own destruction?(Photo: Jaron Lanier in the Hardtalk studio)

Aural Pleasures for the Ride to BRCArtificial Intelligence Is Just a Story, and We Can Tell a Better One (Jaron Lanier)Amazon has recently confirmed reports that its home operating system "Alexa," has been spontaneously laughing for no apparent reason, occasionally refusing to obey commands, and sometimes performing actions that were never asked for.
No one has any idea why — is this a bug? A glitch? A hacker attack? — but internet pioneer and Microsoft researcher Jaron Lanier is probably not surprised.
In his 2017 book Dawn of the New Everything, Lanier points out the startling degree to which these home operating systems — not just Amazon's but from every company on the market — visually resemble "HAL," the AI system in 2001: A Space Odyssey which ca...

They even invented the first digital camera. Today Kodak is bankrupt, and the new face of digital photography is Instagram. When Instagram was sold to Facebook for a billion dollars in 2012, it employed only 13 people. Where did all those jobs disappear?

What would Twitter, Amazon, Yelp, and any network whose value is based on our data, be without us - sharing photos and feelings, making purchases, registering opinions.
