About this listen
Based on Chapter 8
Episode Description: The internet is becoming a "Dark Forest" filled with non-human actors. We explore the rise of "Agentic AI"—software that doesn't just write text, but pursues goals. We discuss "Wolf Packs" of bots that swarm dissidents, the "Infinite Arguer" that never gets tired, and the bleak "Dead Internet Theory" that suggests the web is just machines talking to machines. How do we maintain a democracy when the public sphere is overrun by bots?
