Episode 83 - The Rise of Technocracy In The AI Age

As artificial intelligence becomes embedded in daily life, what does that mean for how knowledge is created, accessed, and valued? In this episode, we explore the evolving role of AI as a knowledge tool and how neural networks mirror the way our own brains learn.

We dive into the implications of this new reality—where expertise is no longer limited to institutions or formal education, but increasingly available to anyone with access to AI. As this shift accelerates, could we be moving toward a technocratic society, where power is concentrated not through liberal democracy, but through the authority of technical and scientific experts?

This conversation unpacks the philosophical, political, and social shifts happening beneath the surface of AI integration—raising important questions about governance, trust, and the future of decision-making in a post-liberal world.
