Capital algo

Description

Join us for an insightful discussion on the impact of algorithmic capital on power dynamics and democracy, inspired by the recently published book "Algorithmic Capital: Accumulation, Power, and Resistance in the Age of Artificial Intelligence" by Jonathan Durand Folco and Jonathan Martineau.

The authors explore how the rise of big data and artificial intelligence is reshaping socio-economic and political landscapes. Through twenty critical theses, they analyze the implications of algorithmic power and offer pathways for resistance against this new form of digital capitalism.

This conference will delve into key issues such as algorithmic governance, digital power structures, and the challenges to democracy in an increasingly automated world. It is a unique opportunity to engage in thought-provoking discussions with the authors and gain a deeper understanding of how artificial intelligence is transforming our societies.
