My focus on this blog will be the intersection of science, technology and society: everything from the history and current status of AI and software; the relationship between science and politics, and how technology is changing workplaces and expertise.
I am a continuing lecturer at UC-Berkeley affiliated with the Interdisciplinary Studies Field (ISF). I write about the history and future of AI, its implications for work and labor, and on the relationship between politics, expertise, and democracy.
