Artifacts - Newsletter

Artifacts is an experiment, a playground, a challenge about stories and ideas on how technology has changed and reshaped us, our society, and our politics. But it's also about how politics and policies are grappling with technology. Artifacts unfolds along two lines: Technology —> Politics: Think about how we get news through social media, how we can participate better and more in democracy, or even how AI is used and misused in election campaigns. And the list goes on. Politics —> Technology: Consider the debate over regulating social media, whether regulation really stifles innovation, what to do with all the data we generate, or even who gets to decide if a U.S. President’s social media accounts should be banned. These two threads often overlap, merge, and collide. Understanding, exploring, and debating them isn’t just useful—it’s essential. Sign up now to get Artifacts straight in your inbox :)
