About this listen

The Algorithmic Life has become a defining feature of our daily existence in 2025, weaving itself seamlessly into how we live, work, and interact with the world around us[1][2]. What began as experimental technology has rapidly evolved into practical applications shaping nearly every aspect of our lives.

Just two months ago, Durham University launched the Leverhulme Centre for Algorithmic Life, securing £10 million in funding over ten years. Under Professor Louise Amoore's leadership, the centre is investigating how algorithms influence our behavior, thinking patterns, and even our fundamental understanding of humanity[5].

The transition from cloud-based AI to edge computing has accelerated dramatically since late 2024. Following Anthropic Claude Desktop's launch last November, we've witnessed the proliferation of smaller, faster AI models running locally on personal devices without constant internet connections[3]. These compact models operate directly on our smartphones, wearables, and IoT devices, trading some processing power for unprecedented convenience.

Perhaps most striking is the rise of autonomous AI agents, which are no longer mere assistants but increasingly manage entire projects across industries. From supply chain optimization to customer service, these agents execute, troubleshoot, and adapt without human intervention[3]. Expert projections suggest the number of AI agents will surpass humans within the next three years - a profound shift many of you are already experiencing in your daily interactions.

The business adoption of generative AI jumped from 55% to 75% in just twelve months, indicating how rapidly these technologies are becoming essential rather than optional[3]. This algorithmic integration represents more than technological advancement; it's reshaping social dynamics, work environments, and personal relationships.

As we navigate this algorithmic landscape together, the question increasingly becomes not whether algorithms will influence our lives, but how we choose to live alongside them. The algorithmic life of 2025 represents both opportunity and challenge as we collectively determine what it means to be human in an increasingly AI-mediated world.
