About Utopias with Dr. Ramesh Srinivasan
In the wake of an era where alarmism and crisis branding sells - whether in relation to climate change, new technologies, or polarization, we have a huge opportunity to embrace our capacity for innovation, empathy, and compassion towards one another. To get there it is high time to have creative, productive, and truly progressive conversations about our planetary future, and approach such from every discipline and perspective we can. Hosted by UCLA professor and public intellectual Dr. Ramesh Srinivasan, Utopias presents a new narrative, a vision of life futures based on a set of conversations that celebrate the work and perspectives of “dreamers”, or those who represent and care deeply for the endless potential for human creativity, expression, and optimism. We share the stories of those who believe in the potential for our planet, and are doing the important work to try to empower our tomorrow in a way that we can all benefit from. This podcast brings back the realms of the scientific, emotional, artistic, legal, poetic, musical, ecological, and spiritual into conversation with one another as together, we imagine and advocate for futures for our planet and species that lift us all up. Dr. Srinivasan’s guests shall run the gamut, bringing artists, journalists, politicians, scientists, environmentalists, monks and religious practitioners, and scholars together. Utopias shall inspire listeners to imagine new futures defined by compassion, an appreciation of diversity alongside unity, and the recognition that we live in an extraordinary time where we are all in ‘it’ together. Produced by Tulin Chang Maltepe. Music by Albert Ortega

34. Can We Still Make Humane Technology? Aza Raskin on Ethical AI & Tech Design
Published 16 Sept 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] Amazon found for every 100 milliseconds their page loads slower. That's less than half of human reaction time. They lose 1% revenue. Google found the same thing. Lots of companies find the same thing. This is why all the companies, like, try to get data centers closer and closer and closer to their users in sort of a high-frequency trading war kind of thing. So... I actually wrote myself some software to break myself from the compulsion of infinite scroll. And that was, I just started adding a little bit of delays the longer I scrolled. So if you're on something that's addictive, you're scrolling through LinkedIn, after the first 10 minutes, whatever you say is your time beyond what you start to regret, start adding 50 milliseconds, 100 milliseconds, 250 milliseconds, sort of sub perceptual.
