Primul reproș la adresa lui Nicușor Dan în coaliție. „În loc să-l desemneze pe Bolojan premier, a întărit PSD” SURSE (Adevărul) - Eșecul instituțional al Programului Național de Reducere a Abandonului Școlar (EduPedu) - Vara liberalizării noastre (Europa Liberă) - Cine sunt „unioniștii” lui George Simion din Basarabia: plătiți de oligarhii Șor și Plahotniuc, urmăriți penal sau arestați pentru cultivare de marijuana (Libertatea) Primul reproș la adresa lui Nicușor Dan în coaliție. „În loc să-l desemneze pe Bolojan premier, a întărit PSD” SURSE (Adevărul) Președintele Nicușor Dan a stârnit nemulțumire în coaliția de guvernare prin decizia de a amâna desemnarea unui prim-ministru. Mai mulți lideri PNL și USR s-au plâns în partide că strategia lui Nicușor Dan nu face altceva decât să întărească PSD, formațiune care, pe zi ce trece, pune tot mai multe condiții pentru a asigura o majoritate parlamentară, susțin surse din coaliție pentru „Adevărul”. Nicușor Dan e așteptat ca zilele viitoare să desemneze un premier, favorit fiind în continuare Ilie Bolojan. Însă președintele ia în calcul și instalarea unui premier tehnocrat, susțin sursele citate. Singura variantă exclusă e cea a rotativei guvernamentale. De fapt, îl vrea cineva pe Bolojan premier? Săptămâna decisivă (SpotMedia) Începe ceea ce ar trebui să fie săptămâna decisivă pentru desemnarea premierului și constituirea guvernului. Dacă și ea va fi pierdută în discuții sterile, nu numai că dificultățile bugetare ale României ar putea deveni fatale, dar și enervarea publicului ar ajunge la cote periculoase, care ar topi mult din încrederea în noul președinte. Dl Bolojan nu a cosmetizat dezastrul și a vorbit deschis, cu cifrele pe masă, despre inevitabilele creșteri de taxe.   Cât despre funcție, de când s-a pus problema desemnării sale ca premier, în campanie, domnia sa a tot repetat condițiile pentru a prelua funcția: autoritate, echipă și majoritate. Cu alte cuvinte, control total asupra guvernului, atât în privința deciziilor, cât și a numirilor/demiterilor.  Nimeni nu pare a vrea să-i dea această putere firească pentru un premier. În primul rând - PSD, dar oare ar vrea USR, care, ne amintim, a plecat de la guvernare pentru că i-au fost demiși de către premier doi miniștri fără voie de la partid? Ilie Bolojan nu vrea să aibă nevoie de încuviințare de la nimeni pentru a schimba un ministru. Dar oare Nicușor Dan ar vrea?  Dacă îl voia, îl desemna din prima zi, îl punea în capul mesei încărcat cu legitimitatea alegerii tandemului și îl lăsa să-și facă treaba, avertizând că a doua desemnare va fi cu mult mai greu de digerat pentru PSD, sub sabia anticipatelor, comentează jurnalista Ioana ene Dogioiu pe pagina SpotMedia. Sigur, e greu pentru un independent să joace foarte tare, dar nu asta promitea în campanie? CursDeGuvernare semnalează o alarmă nouă:  e vorba despre scăderea bruscă a gradului de ocupare – în cel mai mare ritm de după pandemie. Industria este victima principală. IT-ul pierde și el 30.000 de joburi. De fapt, citim pe pagina HotNews, doar doi din trei români din categoria 20-64 de ani au loc de muncă. Așadar, întrebarea pare să fie, taxe mai mari sau mai mulți români la muncă? Jurnalistul Dan Popa observă că atunci ând vine vorba de buget, România pare prinsă într-un joc de-a „cine strânge cureaua mai tare”: statul sau contribuabilul? Dar dacă, în loc să ne tot numărăm găurile de la curea, am încerca să adăugăm mai mulți români la masa de prânz a economiei? Până la urmă, cu cât suntem mai mulți la plată, cu atât va fi mai mică nota de plată pentru fiecare. Eșecul instituțional al Programului Național de Reducere a Abandonului Școlar (EduPedu) În runda I, peste 140 de școli nu au cheltuit niciun ban pentru reducerea abandonului școlar – raport al Ministerului Educației. Asta deși 356 de persoane din inspectoratele școlare au fost plătite cu 4,5 milioane de euro timp de 2 ani pentru a le ajuta să implementeze proiectele. Vara liberalizării noastre (Europa Liberă) Începând cu 1 iulie 2025, toți românii vor simți direct efectele unei triple liberalizări: dispar plafonarea prețurilor energiei, plafonarea prețurilor unor alimente de bază și se schimbă mecanismul de reglementare a polițelor RCA. Guvernul susține că măsurile sunt necesare pentru a reveni la o economie de piață funcțională. Pentru milioane de familii, urmează o perioadă cu cheltuieli lunare semnificativ mai mari. Cine sunt „unioniștii” lui George Simion din Basarabia: plătiți de oligarhii Șor și Plahotniuc, urmăriți penal sau arestați pentru cultivare de marijuana (Libertatea) Alianța pentru Unirea Românilor a promovat în ultimii ani mai multe persoane din Republica Moldova pentru a încerca să dezvolte rapid o filială și dincolo de Prut.  Gruparea politică condusă de George Simion a reușit să atragă în mare parte doar oameni care au avut probleme cu legea, legați de oligarhii Șor și Plahotniuc sau care sunt mai mult interesați de afaceri decât de politică.  O parte dintre membrii înscriși în prima fază au renunțat ulterior la AUR Basarabia, semnând plecări cu cântec din partid. Continuarea în Libertatea.

This week's show is a fun and fascinating consideration of all the ways we're shaped by technology and how we are technological beings, more and more with each passing year. Grant and Brooke share their earliest internet, email, and social media interactions, and connect with guest Vauhini Vara, whose new book, Searches, explores our online footprints, how technology shapes us, and how we both exploit and get exploited by big tech—like Google, YouTube, and social media companies. A truly interesting consideration of how far we've evolved alongside technology. Vauhini Vara began her journalism career as a technology reporter at The Wall Street Journal and later launched, edited and wrote for The New Yorker. Her latest book is Searches, a work of journalism and memoir about how big technology companies are changing our understanding of our selves and our communities. Her debut novel, The Immortal King Rao, was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, and her story collection, This is Salvaged, was longlisted for The Story Prize and the Mark Twain American Voice in Literature Award.

The book hybrid blend of memoir and modern tech history explore how the internet, AI, and the corporate tech giants behind them have shaped the way we see ourselves and connect with others. Through Vara's personal anecdotes and digital history deep dives—including a nostalgic look at AOL chat rooms, a rundown of her Google search history and prolific Amazon product reviews, and her reporting on the rise of AI and how an early version of ChatGPT helped her write an essay about her sister's death—Searches shows how our search for meaning and identity online defines life in the digital age in ways both fascinating and concerning.

Eric Newman speaks with journalist and author Vauhini Vara about her new book “Searches: Selfhood in the Digital Age.” The book hybrid blend of memoir and modern tech history explore how the internet, AI, and the corporate tech giants behind them have shaped the way we see ourselves and connect with others. Through Vara's personal anecdotes and digital history deep dives—including a nostalgic look at AOL chat rooms, a rundown of her Google search history and prolific Amazon product reviews, and her reporting on the rise of AI and how an early version of ChatGPT helped her write an essay about her sister's death—“Searches” shows how our search for meaning and identity online defines life in the digital age in ways both fascinating and concerning.

In an essay about her recent book Searches (Pantheon, 2025), a genre-bending chronicle of the deeply personal ways we use the internet and the uncanny ways it uses us, Vauhini Vara admits that several reviewers seemed to mistake her engagement with ChatGPT as an uncritical embrace of large language models. Enter Aarthi Vadde to talk with Vauhini about the power and the danger of digital tech and discuss to what it means to co-create with AI. Vauhini tells Aarthi and host Sarah Wasserman that at the heart of all her work is a desire to communicate—that “language,” as she says, “is the main tool we have to bridge the divide.” She explains that the motivation in Searches as in her journalism is to test out tools that promise new forms of communication—or even tools that promise to be able to communicate themselves. Amidst all her interest in new tech, Vauhini is first and foremost a writer: she and Aarthi discuss what it means to put ChatGPT on the printed page, what genre means in today's media ecosystem, and whether generative AI will steal writers' paychecks. Considering generative AI models as tools that “don't have a perspective,” makes for an episode that diagnoses the future of writing with much less doomsaying than authors and critics often bring to the topic. And if all of this writing with robots sounds too “out there,” stay tuned for Vauhini's down-to-earth answer to our signature question.

Considering generative AI models as tools that “don't have a perspective,” makes for an episode that diagnoses the future of writing with much less doomsaying than authors and critics often bring to the topic. And if all of this writing with robots sounds too “out there,” stay tuned for Vauhini's down-to-earth answer to our signature question.

In an essay about her recent book Searches (Pantheon, 2025), a genre-bending chronicle of the deeply personal ways we use the internet and the uncanny ways it uses us, Vauhini Vara admits that several reviewers seemed to mistake her engagement with ChatGPT as an uncritical embrace of large language models. Enter Aarthi Vadde to talk with Vauhini about the power and the danger of digital tech and discuss to what it means to co-create with AI.

Vauhini Vara grew up alongside internet startup companies. She was in middle school when AOL sent those first floppy discs to our homes, inviting us to dial up to the world wide web. A graduate of Stanford and the Iowa Writers' Workshop, she became a tech writer for The Wall Street Journal and a business reporter for The Atlantic, The New Yorker and other publications. In 2017, Vara profiled Sam Altman, a cofounder of OpenAI, and gained early access to ChatGPT. She used the program to write about a topic that had long eluded her — the grief she experienced over the death of her sister. “Ghosts” came out in The Believer in the summer of 2021 and quickly went viral (as evidenced by its adaptation on This American Life). That piece, and several others, are part of Vara's latest book, Searches: Selfhood in the Digital Age. Vara's 2022 novel, The Immortal King Rao — also steeped in the tech industry — was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and her story collection, This is Salvaged, came out the following year. She joins Marrie Stone to talk about how these technologies, including ChatGPT and other A.I. models are impacting writers and where she sees things going. Her insights are both hopeful and terrifying. She also talks about writing in different genres as a journalist, a novelist, a writer of creative nonfiction and short stories. She shares her insights about playing with different structures and how to release yourself from conventional forms of storytelling.

With SEARCHES: Selfhood in the Digital Age (Pantheon), tech writer Vauhini Vara explores how our sense of self has been co-opted, quantified, and exploited by big tech as a way of selling us more stuff or selling us to third parties. We talk about what we talk about when we talk about our Google searches (& Amazon purchases, Twitter subject preferences, etc.), the interface of exploitation and self-expression, what selfhood means to tech companies vs. what it means to us, and what she learned when she fed chapters of her book into ChatGPT. We get into agency vs. coercion, how the promise of tech so often gets inverted, how ChatGPT tried & failed to express her grief from her sister's death from cancer, why she brought memoir into SEARCHES alongside its other experimental modes, how her husband serves as a low-tech foil in the book, and whether or not we have a say in how the online era plays out. We also discuss why she doesn't post about her personal life, how the book's multiplicity of voices offsets the corporate voice of ChatGPT, what she got out of Bill Gates' biography, the importance of non-VC-funded technology to help us escape exploitative models of information, whether an essayist ever really changes over the course of an essay, and more.
