"The important thing is not the journey abroad, but the journey home."
In a world full of expectations and ready-made paths, how do we find out what really fulfills us? The guest on SMP LeaderTalks episode #75 didn't need a work-and-travel year in Australia to answer this question. Ranga Yogeshwar studied experimental physics in Aachen, listened to himself - and then did what he really wanted to do: Become a science editor.
"Journalism should provide guidance, not preach."
Most people still know Yogeshwar as the presenter of “Quarks” or “Wissen vor acht”. He is one of the best-known communicators of complex topics in the German-speaking world. One of the topics that currently occupies him the most: Artificial intelligence.
"Where will we let AI decide for itself in the future and where not?"
He talks to Georgiy Michailov about how we can shape technologies so that they are not just profit-driven. And what it means to live in a world in which AI models optimize themselves. They also talk about the crisis of trust in the media and the influence of social networks. About what happens when attention becomes the most important currency. Why false reports spread faster than facts. And how we can maintain critical reflection in times of “follow the science”. Look forward to a conversation about humanity, responsibility and the big questions of our time.
