How To Cure Your Algorithm

£15

The People Speak bring their tools for the world to take over itself to the Sage & Jester event series at The Pleasance Theatre! Expect Talkaoke and other interactive formats at this unique evening of fun & conversation!

Where do we draw the line between free speech and dangerous misinformation? Algorithms not only dictate our data feeds but also reinforce our echo chambers, the stakes have never been higher – both for our individual perspectives and for society at large.

How To Cure Your Algorithm dives headfirst into the pressing issue of digital manipulation. We’ll expose how unchecked algorithms can distort reality and question the balance between free speech and censorship.

More than a debate, it’s a call to action: reclaim your digital narrative. In a series of dynamic sessions, you will receive an unprecedented opportunity to transform the way you interact with digital media, as you get the chance to triage and diagnose the issues in your algorithm before we lead you through some cultural therapies and digital medicinal interventions.

We invite you to be at the forefront of this vital conversation – help shape the future of online discourse and empower individuals to take control of their own digital truth. Let’s disrupt the echo chamber together!

On May 20, join us live at the Pleasance Theatre with host Sophia Smith Galer and journalist and author Jamie Bartlett for a critical conversation on the age of misinformation and how to take back control.
