Disruptor U | Humans in the Loop | Lowriders of New Mexico
DISRUPTOR U. – As contempt for cancel culture and self-censorship on college campuses continues to drive a political divide across the country, correspondent Jon Wertheim reports on a new startup university, the University of Austin, in Austin, Texas. The school has been labeled by some as an "anti-woke university" and Wertheim speaks to the founders, students and advisors about how they believe they're disrupting modern academia by fostering debate and ideological openness in their classrooms. Denise Schrier Cetta is the producer.
HUMANS IN THE LOOP – As chatbots continue to evolve, Lesley Stahlreports from Nairobi, Kenya, on the growing market of "humans in the loop" – workers around the world who help train AI for big American tech companies. Stahl speaks with digital workers who have spent hours in front of screens teaching and improving AI, but complain of poor working conditions, low pay and undertreated psychological trauma. Shachar Bar-On and Jinsol Jung are the producers.
LOWRIDERS OF NEW MEXICO – Correspondent Bill Whitaker cruises through Espanola, N.M., a town that's a hub of lowrider culture: vintage American automobiles with vibrant paint jobs and street-scraping suspensions. He meets a community of "cruisers" who are turning their hobby's bad-boy reputation on its head, paving a new route as activists and community servants, and claiming a place as custodians of Hispanic culture and champions of fine art. Rome Hartman is the producer.
