David Weinberger writes and speaks about the effect of the technology on ideas, from a background in tech companies and a Ph.D. in philosophy. In five books and countless posts and articles he has explored the effect of the Internet and AI on knowledge, on how we organize our ideas, on the disruptive architecture of the Web, and on the core concepts by which we think about our world.

 His latest book, Everyday Chaos: Technology, Complexity, and How We're Thriving in a New World of Possibility (Harvard Business Review Press) argues that AI and the Internet are transforming our understanding of how the future happens, enabling us to acknowledge the chaotic unknowability of our everyday world. — a Copernican-scale change in our self-understanding.

 David has been a fellow, senior researcher, and member of the Fellows Advisory Board at the Berkman Klein Center since the early 2000s. Trained as a philosopher (with a doctorate from the University of Toronto), David was co-director of the Harvard Library Innovation Lab, and a journalism fellow at Harvard's Shorenstein Center. He has also been a marketing VP at pioneering Web companies, an adviser to high tech companies and to presidential campaigns, and a Franklin Fellow at the U.S. State Department. For four years he was embedded as a writer-in-residence and editor-in-residence, part time, in Google AI ethics and humanities groups. He edits the Strong Ideas open access book series for MIT Press.
