Jobst Landgrebe on hype cycles - Jerm Warfare► Subscribe to the UK Column YouTube channel ► https://bit.ly/UKColumn_Subscribe Jobst Landgrebe, a Senior Research Associate in the Department of Philosophy at the University at Buffalo specialising in the philosophy of AI, complex systems, and the ontology of physics and mathematics, elaborates on the concept of "hype cycles" which he explores in his book "The Hype Cycle." Jobst describes hype cycles as cultural and scientific phenomena that are used to govern societies in the absence of traditional faith or fear-based governance. He argues that these cycles are often manufactured by elites to create a state of emergency, compelling people to conform to certain political agendas. Jobst distinguishes between scientific hypes, like climate change and COVID-19, and cultural hypes, such as diversity and inclusion. Whilst some hype cycles may have organic roots, he suggests they are often exploited by rulers to reinforce their power. The discussion moves on to the cyclical nature of hypes, with Jobst noting that they repeat over time with changing content, before emphasising the importance of resisting particularly harmful cycles. ► Join UK Column Live every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1pm UK time or watch previous live recordings here: https://bit.ly/UKColumn_Live ► [UK Column Website] Explore all our written and video content on the official UK Column website: https://www.ukcolumn.org/ ► [Support UK Column] Please donate to support our independent journalism & investigative journalism: https://support.ukcolumn.org/ ► [UK Column YouTube] Please subscribe to the UK Column News YouTube channel for more alternative news and independent news: https://bit.ly/UKColumn_Subscribe Follow #UKColumn on:► X: https://x.com/ukcolumn► Telegram: https://t.me/ukcolumn► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UKColumnExtracts► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uk_column_news
