This week on Disrupted, we look at how technology influences us and how we influence technology. We speak with journalist Karen Hao about the ways artificial intelligence is mirroring historical European colonial practices. Policy expert Dr. Nicol Turner Lee joins us to talk about the state of digital privacy in post-Roe America. And, PC Mag's Sascha Segan talks about what the T-Mobile/Sprint merger means for consumers. 

GUESTS:
Karen Hao: China Tech Reporter for the Wall Street Journal and the former Senior AI Editor at MIT Technology Review.
Dr. Nicol Turner Lee: Senior Fellow in Governance Studies and the Director of the Center for Technology Innovation at the Brookings Institution. She’s author of the new book Digitally Invisible: How the Internet is Creating the New Underclass.
Sascha Segan: Lead Mobile Analyst at PC Mag

This program was produced by James Szkobel-Wolff, J. Carlisle Larsen, Kevin Chang Barnum, and Catie Talarski.


Thanks to our interns, Anya Grondalski and Mira Raju.

Disruptions are all around us. Some spark joy and possibility. Others move us to take action and re-evaluate our world. Every week on Disrupted, host and political scientist Khalilah Brown-Dean unpacks how big and small disruptions are shaping our lives.

From technology, economics, education, and healthcare to navigating our way through a global pandemic, continued racial inequalities, geopolitical upheaval, and climate change. What can history teach us about the current moment? What can we learn as we prepare for the disruptions yet to come? Who are the people using their voice to reset, reenergize, and create change? What are we learning about ourselves and our society to help us move forward?
