From building products to being the products. The internet started as a space for creativity and connection, but somewhere along the way, it changed.

We stopped shaping the platforms, and the platforms started shaping us. What was once a playground for ideas became a system designed to predict, influence, and control our behaviour.

Douglas Rushkoff is a world-renowned visionary and futurist named one of the world’s 10 most influential thinkers by MIT. Douglas has spent three decades thinking and writing about emerging technologies like AI, which has given him an unparalleled perspective on how to use these new tools to unleash our full human potential.
