Funny as Tech (tech ethicist David Ryan Polgar & comedian Joe Leonardo) chat with Georgia Frances King about the future of journalism! How has it been influenced by social media and the internet in general, and where is it headed?We chat about Georgia being a slashie, gamifying reading, filter bubbles, the ability to nerd out on topics, clicking out random ads to support good journalism, whether people read long articles online, meaningful engagement, saltwater crocodiles, and so much more. Georgia Frances King is an Ideas Editor at Quartz, where she works with industry leaders to pen forward-thinking op-eds on futuristic technology. VR, AR, AI, IoT, ML, NLP: If it's an acronym, she probably deals with it. A recovered lifestyle journalist, she was once the assistant editor of Australia's frankie magazine and spent three years as the editor of Kinfolk magazine, during which time she also edited their New York Times-best seller, The Kinfolk Home. She now works at the intersection of emerging technology and quality-of-life, happily living with her head in the cloud.
