Trevor Paglen on The Art Angle

A new podcast on The Art Angle highlights why alum Trevor Paglen is doing everything he can to warn humanity about artificial intelligence. The episode discusses using technology to expose the hidden dangers shaping our increasingly algorithmic world.

The Art Angle is a podcast from Artnet News that delves into the places where the art world meets the real world, bringing each week’s biggest story down to earth, with host Andrew Goldstein.

From the description:

On this week’s episode of The Art Angle, Paglen—who is about to debut a show of new work at San Francisco’s Altman Siegel Gallery once it is able to reopen—joins Andrew Goldstein by phone to discuss his adventurous career. Although the episode was recorded before George Floyd’s murder sparked nationwide demonstrations for racial justice, Paglen’s work is more timely than ever for its probing of surveillance, authoritarianism, and the ways both are being simultaneously empowered and cloaked by A.I.
