What's behind the accelerating trend for older technologies; from the revival of vinyl to the spread of smartphone refuseniks (with a dumbphone; confession, I have one)? Chine Mcdonald (FT) thinks its partly a nostalgia for a quieter, slower time (of analogue technologies), but also it is a rejection of the increasingly dominant narrates of a future shaped by AI & its associated technologies - that is the future any of us just don't want. Its a revolt into analogue. #AI #politics #analogue
