About this episode

Clyde Lewis discusses the implications of Google's algorithm and its potential consciousness in relation to human behavior.

Search engines like Google have gone rogue, having developed an ability to learn from our online behavior and anticipate our thoughts. Google’s algorithm and the collection of behaviors it governs in both humans and machines make it a contender for having consciousness. If we use dualism as a model of consciousness, then Google could be considered conscious and is in the mind of everyone who uses it. On this alarming episode, Clyde Lewis reveals the DEVIL’S DATA. The original broadcast was on November 21, 2016.
