POPULARITY
In the previous episode, we heard how so-called artificial intelligence is being sold to the public as a revolutionary, inevitable technology that is going to completely transform society. This claim is built around the misleading metaphor of “artificial intelligence,” which equates machine processes with human intelligence. Generative AI products are being marketed as proof that machines will very soon be doing everything a human can do, but better, faster, and more efficiently. We're being told we can't stop this technology. Only learn to live with it. In this episode, we're going to show how so-called generative AI is not revolutionary. Instead, it's an evolution of societal trends that have been a long time in the making and which were not inevitable…Things like the automation of labor, growth of mass media, and vast increases in monopoly power. By understanding this context we can get a much clearer picture of what so-called generative AI actually is, what the companies behind it are really up to, and all the ways it can affect our lives.

Social media connects friends and strangers as never before. Cornell’s Lee Humphreys, author of The Qualified Self, joins Dirk and Jon to explore centuries-old social traditions now updated for a world of mobile and AI technology. Author of The Qualified Self and Cornell University Associate Professor in the Department of Communication Lee Humphreys joins Dirk and Jon to explore the past of social communication in order to better understand its present and future. We learn how ancient technologies like fans and old traditions like diarying frame modern social media and communication less as a revolution and more like an update for the digital age. Memorable Quotes "As long as users are only on phones, they will at best be consumers of the technology and not developers or producers of it." "Throughout much of the 19th century, diaries were also shared. So people would come visit and you might sit down and look through your diary together." "Machines have a difficult time interpreting power." "I do not think voice UI is going to have much of a future in public spaces." "As we diversify the builders. the designers, the coders of these technologies, we will see greater diversity in the potential audiences and users that they can serve." "I would define communication as the exchange of social meaning."

Physical journals, scrapbooks, and photo albums all offer their owners the opportunity to chronicle both mundane and extravagant events. But unlike social media posting, this analog memorializing of life happenings is not encumbered with the negative theorizing about why people choose to record experiences. In her new book, The Qualified Self: Social Media and the Accounting of Everyday Life (MIT Press, 2018), Cornell University associate professor Lee Humphreys argues that selfies and other social media life logging, like traditional journaling, is media accounting, which offers us a deeper understanding of ourselves.

Lee Humphreys is an Associate Professor in the Department of Communication at Cornell University. Lee studies the social uses and perceived effects of communication technology. Her research has explored mobile phone use in public spaces, emerging norms on mobile social networks, and the privacy and surveillance implications of location-based services. Lee is focused on how people integrate communication technology in their everyday lives in order to facilitate identity management and social interaction. Her upcoming book published by MIT Press entitled, The Qualified Self: Social Media and the Cataloging of Everyday Life is due out in Spring 2018. The book historicizes contemporary social media to help us reveal what’s really new about social media. In this episode, Thrive LOUD brings you 'back to school' as Professor Humphreys shares some of her knowledge and expertise.
Presented by Lee Humphreys on Friday 05 June 2015.Many of the ways we use social media today have longstanding precedents in historical media like diaries, journals, and scrapbooks. What we think of as the 'social media revolution' is part of a much longer story about the use of media for connecting people through the documenting and sharing of everyday life. Placing social media into a longer historical context helps to reveal what is really new about these contemporary communication technologies, what future services might learn from historical communication practices, and what fundamental aspects of the human experience emerge through a variety of technological platforms.
