Edwin Black: The Algorithm Ghetto, Cashless Society & Newgenics

*Original Air Date: June 10, 2020Show more

Award-winning author Edwin Black joins us to discuss "Newgenics" and the Chinese-style "Social Credit Score" system which he believes will ultimately come to every nation on earth and which has been greatly accelerated by Covid-19. He describes how a person within such a system will become relegated to the "Algorithm Ghetto" with a "Non-Entity" or "Zombie" status. He looks at what this means for the future and what, if anything, individuals or nations can do to mitigate such a dystopian scenario.
