The Tech That Went Sh*tty: Twitter's First Employee on the Right to Exit and Open Protocols

Today we have a real treat for you! Rabble Evan Henshaw-Plath, Twitter’s first employee, reveals the chaotic, hackathon origins of the platform.

He details how user feedback built Twitter's core features (hashtags, retweets), and why the subsequent shift to advertising destroyed the original promise. We unpack the critical concept of ‘inshitification’ and how new open-protocol platforms like Bluesky are designed to combat centralization by giving users the fundamental right to exit and maintain platform accountability.

If AI is the answer, what's the question? Are humans scalable..?

On the show today we're exploring generative AI, analytics, and data. As the world goes crazy for ChatGPT are we ready to unlock it's potential? First we talk to Dmitry Shapiro, CEO of Koji. Dimitry is convinced we're entering a new phase of our relationship with generative AI, and asks us to look at creativity again, and ourselves 'what's good enough'?

Should AI pictures be marked as fake? Can advertisers be an agent for equality?
