Episode 4: Is Technology Democracy’s Saviour or Downfall?

Taiwan’s former Digital Minister Audrey Tang and economist Glen Weyl share an infectious techno optimism. In a surprisingly spiritual conversation, they tell us why they want to invite more, not less, technology into the democratic process. We also talk to Bianca Wylie from Digital Public about the limitations of tech as a tool of salvation.
