Creating a More Perfect Social Media
Manage episode 429559829 series 3539064
Social media networks have grown form the humbling beginnings of Friendster and Myspace, leaving them behind to adapt to facebook and X (Twitter). The modern networks have been under intense scrutiny for the enforcement of policies that some claim violate free speech. Algorithms and artificial intelligence manipulate audiences into silos and influence public opinion and policies. They have become a powerful propaganda arm by anyone wishing to harness their power through ownership or coercion.
My guest today is the CEO of Pickax, a brand new social media platform that hopes to create a more perfect network that empowers the user to find their voice. Jeff Dornik will be launching pickax.com in several weeks. He stopped by the show and was gracious to answer questions about how he expects his network to be different, and answer my concerns about whether social media is capable of being a force for good that outweighs the bad.
