Friday: Nerd Reich Live Chat w/ Dave Karpf
This Friday (June 12) at 1 p.m. Pacific (4 p.m. Eastern) join Dr. Dave Karpf and me for a live discussion of the latest developments with tech fascism. I’ll send out a Zoom link on Friday morning. Please click here to RSVP.
Dave has been tracking the political infrastructure of tech power for decades, and he’s usually right about where things are headed. We’ll discuss Palantir’s manifesto, Peter Thiel’s temporary move to Argentina, the backlash against AI data centers, the possibility of a trillionaire Elon Musk, and Dave’s predictions for the year.
And we’ll answer your questions. (Leave them in the comments below or email gil (at) thenerdreich.com)
