30.11.2024 19:00 Co-op Live, ManchesterHaving left her mark on every high street and the Collins dictionary, the Brat star commands the stage alone in a joyful arena show that feels more like a warehouse raveCharli xcx is smoking a cigarette and surveying her disciples from an elevated platform. Most are clad in the ubiquitous slime green that adorned the cover of Junes culture-swallowing Brat album, while some sport the same wraparound glasses as their unapologetic idol. Everyone is dancing in unison to Apple, a curious bop about nature v nurture, fruit and airports, that went viral thanks to a TikTok dance.

She is now the international policy director at Stanford University Cyber Policy Center and international policy fellow at Stanfords Institute for Human-Centred Artificial Intelligence. Her new book is entitled The Tech Coup: How to Save Democracy from Silicon Valley.In terms of power and political influence, what are the main differences between big tech and previous incarnations of big business?The difference is the role that these tech companies play in so many aspects of peoples lives: in the state, the economy, geopolitics. So while previous monopolists amassed a lot of capital and significant positions, they were usually in one sector, like oil or car production. These tech companies are like octopuses with tentacles in so many different directions. They have so much data, location data, search, communications, critical infrastructure, and now AI can be built on top of all that assembled power, which makes these companies very different animals to what weve seen in the past.The Tech Coup by Marietje Schaake is published by Princeton University Press (?22).
