Ep 56 | How Small Business Underdogs Are DESTROYING Big Tech Giants

Peter Gietl, managing editor of Return and Frontier magazine at Blaze Media, joins James Poulos to discuss the increasing tension between centralized Big Tech and the rising influence of small tech companies. As Americans return to a frontier mentality, they are seeking out new ways to live and think, driven by technological advancements. They also discuss the challenges and potential opportunities of AI and how Silicon Valley is turning more libertarian. Gietl talks about the future of Return and how Blaze Media is covering Big Tech, digital privacy, and digital surveillance by championing breaking news that emphasizes humanity and freedom. When tech bros and dirty journalists combine, how do you know what information to trust? AI and a collective consciousness on the internet may be nefarious but may also be our only option for sourcing truth in journalism. Gietl argues the biggest challenge in facing bad-faith leaders like Sam Altman (OpenAI), Elon Musk (Neuralink), and Mark Zuckerberg is preventing them from monopolizing the technology.
