Artificial intelligence, big data, modern science, and the Internet are all revealing a fundamental truth—the world is vastly more complex and unpredictable than we've allowed ourselves to see. Through stories from history, business, and technology, philosopher and technologist David Weinberger’s book “Everyday Chaos: Technology, Complexity, and How We’re Thriving in a New World of Possibility” finds the unifying truths lying below the surface of the tools we take for granted and explores a future in which our best strategy often requires holding back from anticipating and instead creating as many possibilities as we can. Join us on “Leonard Lopate at Large” on WBAI for a conversation with David Weinberger about “Everyday Chaos” and what it means for our daily lives.
