About this Event
Co-presented with Gray Area
With bylines in The Nation, the New Republic, and The Baffler, financial reporter Jacob Silverman has had his eyes on Silicon Valley for years. Now, in his deeply researched and all-too-timely new book Gilded Rage: Elon Musk and the Radicalization of Silicon Valley, he traces the tech world’s reactionary turn. Elon Musk, as Silverman illustrates, is only the most recent and high-profile example of this rightward lurch. In what Kirkus has called “a book to trouble your dreams,” Silverman traces the promise of political influence, the enticements of deregulation, and the lure of technofascism. Silverman’s partner in this vital conversation is Alex Hanna, Director of Research at the Distributed AI Research Institute and co-author of The AI Con. Doors at 6:30pm. $10 adv / $15 door
