Big Food, Big Tech and Big AI with Michael Moss

In the next two episodes of Your Undivided Attention, we
take a close look at two respective industries: big food and
social media, which represent dangerous “races to the bottom” and
have big parallels with AI.

And we are asking: what can our past mistakes and missed
opportunities teach us about how we should approach AI
harms?

In this first episode, Tristan talks to Pulitzer Prize-winning
journalist and author Michael Moss. His book Salt, Sugar, Fat:
How the Food Giants Hooked Us rocked the fast food industry
when it came out in 2014.

Tristan and Michael discuss how we can leverage the lessons
learned from Big Food’s coordination failures, and whether it’s
the responsibility of the consumer, the government, or the
companies to regulate.
