MIT Media Lab After Dark Part 3: We Just Make Boxes here feat. Sarah Taber

You’re well accustomed to us just sort of riffing as we go along, but this week we speak with crop scientist Sarah Taber (@SarahTaber_bww) on the topic of the MIT Media Lab and their supposedly brilliant ‘food computer.’ Sarah joins Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), Hussein (@HKesvani), and Alice @AliceAvizandum as we discuss in even more detail why tech lords’ conception of the world’s problems are just, well, weirdly off the mark!
