In this episode, Diosa and Mala unpack the intersections of AI, the creative industry, and the environment. They explore how a startup is creating AI-hosted podcasts, AI tools users can’t opt out of, and why we should all be reading Fahrenheit 451. Diosa and Mala spotlight self-surveillance and the hidden costs of data centers draining water, often in rural, low-income areas which adds layers to environmental racism and community harm.
