When Information Can't Be Trusted: Algorithms, Power, What We Know - Hrvoje Morić
Published 7 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
My guest is Hrvoje Morić. His work explores geopolitics, health, war, and the structures that shape what information reaches the public. This conversation looks at a deeper question: What happens when information itself becomes something that is filtered, shaped, or controlled by systems we don't fully see?
We explore:
- The Disinformation Governance Board and what problem it was intended to solve
- Whether algorithms quietly determine what people are able to see ("the algorithm ghetto")
- Why some narratives are reinforced while others are suppressed
- How independent voices navigate increasingly constrained platforms
- Where information, power, and incentives intersect.
This isn't a debate about who is right. It's an exploration of how the system works, and what that means for understanding what's true. As with all conversations on this show, the goal is not to tell you what to think - it's to examine how a problem is framed.
