This week on Exchanges, I am joined by one of the most cerebral digital thinkers around - Steve Sammartino. Steve explores the cultural shifts that have and are being driven by tech giants, the rise of AI, and how algorithms are reshaping public discourse.

We dive into the importance of open-source technology, the future of work in an AI-powered world, and the growing political influence of corporations. Steve also calls for urgent reform in political funding to protect the integrity of our democracy in the digital age.
