Trust with Jimmy Wales

About this episode

Information is power. But how do we adapt now that most of the information we consume comes with a heavy bias?  In an ironic twist of fate, it’s Wikipedia — the encyclopedia that anyone can edit — that has done one of the best jobs maintaining public trust in our polarized era.  I sat down with the founder of Wikipedia, Jimmy Wales, in front of a live studio audience to explore how we got here and how Wikipedia’s transparency and vulnerability may be a model for a better future. This…is A Bit of Optimism. For more on Jimmy, his work, and the Founders Forum summit that hosted our conversation, check out:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Wales https://twitter.com/jimmy_wales https://ff.co/
