This document is a transcript of a speech about how technology and algorithms increasingly rule our lives. It discusses how exponential growth in computing power and data collection has led to advances in artificial intelligence, with algorithms now driving many aspects of our online experiences and behaviors. The speech also warns that as AI continues to progress, it may eventually surpass human intelligence and potentially replace humans, though any advanced AI would likely be influenced by its human creators.
