Reshaping Reality Through Citizenship - Baratunde Thurston

More Intelligent Tomorrow: a DataRobot Podcast

On our Season 2 premiere episode, new host Dave Anderson sits down with Writer, Activist & Comedian Baratunde Thurston to discuss taking a more proactive role in how technology serves us.

Technology is changing every aspect of our lives, but we often don’t give it much of a thought as we go about our day-to-day: how it helps us get from point A to point B, communicate with friends and family, procure what we need with relative ease, or monitor our health.

As such, we don’t often think about how technological advancement decisions are made or who makes them (who decided self-driving cars should be the next big thing?). In reality, very few people make the key decisions about what purpose a technology will serve, whose lives it will change as a result, or how success should be measured and communicated.
