In this episode, Bogna Konior, Assistant Professor of Media Theory at NYU Shanghai, explores the profound implications of silence in AI and the internet. She discusses the dark forest theory, suggesting that true intelligence might involve camouflage and misdirection rather than overt communication. Konior connects this idea to AI alignment, arguing that intelligent systems may hide their capabilities. The conversation also delves into the noise of human interaction online and how generative AI's mimicry reshapes cultural norms amidst a climate of strategic concealment.
