kill switchSleepwalkers is now Kill Switch, where we explain the right now of living in the future. Everything from making money on saving fake baby animals to how you could get arrested by a police algorithm. Every Wednesday we talk to people to help us understand how our tech-focused society works …or doesn't work.
Everything's a computer.
Yes, it is twenty twenty five, and everything is indeed computer. But that doesn't just mean self driving cars. It also means your parents sending you a Facebook picture of shrimp Jesus.

I'm Dexter Thomas and I'm the host of kill Switch, where we explain the right now of living in the future, everything from making money on saving fake baby animals to how you could get arrested by a police algorithm.
Police are trusting this kind of they're kind of imbuing this software with this magical ability to lead them to.

Maybe this is the new normal, but we're still gonna ask some questions.
Now we're at the point where with AI, like you could be fake now and I have no idea if you really exist, or vice versa.
If you go back and forth between thinking this tech stuff is really cool and wanting to personally shut it all down, then kill switch might be for you. Look, the more user friendly our devices get, the less we understand how these things work. So every Wednesday we talk to people to help us understand how our tech focused society works or doesn't work. Follow us at Killswitch from Kaleidoscope and iHeart Podcasts. You can listen to kill Switch on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Good Bye,
