Listen "The great reset - will humans become redundant?"

Episode Synopsis

In this episode Fran Dyson is joined by Warren Ross, Jeannie Baxter and Councillor Kerry Brown for a in-depth discussion about the World Economic Forum’s push for a “Great Reset”. Championed as a way of creating a equitqble and sustainable future, our panel digs down into both the propaganda machine and the corporate and governmental agendas behind it. We discuss the financialisation and digitalisation of our education and health systems, the involvement of the tech companies,  the ways that the covid pandemic acts a perfect enabler, the possibility of a Universal Basic income and what that would mean, the notion of humans as “biohazards” and ultimately redundant in a world run by AI, and much more.
