    Ramesh Srinivasan: The True Cost of Artificial Intelligence

    #36: Artificial intelligence is here, whether we're ready or not. In this episode of Full Expression, host Dan Imhoff sits down with UCLA professor and Utopias podcast host Ramesh Srinivasan to ask what that reality means for creativity, culture, and everyday life. Ramesh brings a rare perspective: he's lived inside the tech world as an engineer and AI developer (including time at the MIT Media Lab), and he's spent decades studying the social, political, and environmental impacts of technology. The conversation expands into the big questions shaping our moment: AI as pattern recognition and surveillance, the power of tech oligarchs, the rise of disinformation, and the hidden environmental costs of data processing. We also dig into what it means to stay creatively dignified in an AI-saturated world: when (and if) these tools can be useful, and why practices like writing longhand, movement, and meditation matter now more than ever It's a conversation about power and possibility, fear and literacy, and the urgent case for a "new Bauhaus," a way of designing technology that supports connection, care, and a future that's actually worth living Hosted on Acast.

    Adam Weymouth: Walking Across Europe, Writing About Wolves

    #35: An epic wolf journey becomes a lens on everything from ecology to migration, borders, and what it means to coexist with the wild in modern Europe. In this episode, writer and adventurer Adam Weymouth joins us to talk about his book Lone Wolf: Walking the Line Between Civilization and Wilderness. Weymouth retraces the thousand-mile path of an iconic wolf named Slavc, tracked by GPS as he traveled from Slovenia across Austria and the Alps to northern Italy—moving through deep wilderness, but also skirting suburbs, airports, and working farmland. Along the way, we explore the long, complicated history between humans and wildlife, the politics shaping species repopulation and rewilding across Europe, and the cultural stories that still cast the wolf as the villain. We dig into Weymouth's reporting and creative process: walking the route in stages, translating conversations across languages, balancing science with storytelling, and resisting the urge to turn the wolf into a mythic hero or monster. It's a conversation about nature and culture, fear and fascination, and the hope embedded in a species finding its way back. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
