How Can We Improve Governance With Tech? Discussion With Dr. Kapil Amarasinghe

Dr. Kapil Amarasinghe comes on the podcast for a little change of pace: a discussion on how to improve governance in our society today. We go over problems with democratic systems the way they are structured today, with the will of the people not reaching its ultimate conclusion in actual public policy. We go into a thought experiment into how we could solve this with technology providing better direct democracy outlets, and end with a teaser for the next chat: what happens if someone opts out?
