About this listen
Just two months ago, Durham University launched the Leverhulme Centre for Algorithmic Life with up to £10 million in funding over ten years[5]. Under Professor Louise Amoore's leadership, this interdisciplinary center is exploring how algorithmic technologies influence our behavior, thinking patterns, and even our fundamental understanding of humanity[5].
The shift from cloud-based AI to edge computing has accelerated significantly this year. Since Anthropic Claude Desktop launched last November, we've witnessed a proliferation of smaller, faster AI models running locally on our devices without requiring constant internet connections[3]. These compact AI systems now power everything from our wearables to household appliances.
Perhaps most striking is the rise of autonomous AI agents, which have evolved beyond mere assistants to become project managers across industries from supply chain optimization to customer service[3]. Expert projections suggest the number of AI agents will surpass humans within the next three years, representing a profound transformation in our technological relationships[3].
Business adoption of generative AI has jumped from 55% to 75% in just the past year alone[3]. For many of us, this rapid integration feels simultaneously empowering and overwhelming as algorithms increasingly mediate our social interactions, entertainment choices, and professional decisions.
As listeners navigate this algorithmic landscape, questions emerge about how these technologies reshape what it means to be human. The Durham research center specifically aims to address this critical question: how do we want to live with algorithms?[5] As we move through the second half of 2025, this question becomes increasingly urgent as algorithmic systems continue their seamless integration into the fabric of everyday life.
