Awesome 3 part series recently aired on BBC in the UK. Highly recommend it.
Also, I'd really appreciate it if someone could tell me the name of the song that is playing around 9:38. I recognize it I just cant remember its name or artist.
I have watched the 2nd one, but it's interesting to see how ppl underestimate the world around us. And to see that we actually have no real control over it...

Seen 1/3 now nice. Can't agree with a lot of things. The narrative sometimes is even naive, what do you expect if you allow the greed mongers of wall street to control the markets? Seen in that light you can also wonder why Alan Greenspan is portrayed as some kind of genius instead of a criminal genius. Just blame it on our wrong sense of trust in computers.
