Information & Ethics committee  That's that machine intelligence coming in to steer you away from my testimony.

Information & Ethics committee  I've spent the last two and a half years studying this problem, pretty much from the day I woke up after the U.S. presidential election in November 2016, and I'm convinced of the thesis that I've just laid out to you. However, I want to be clear: Technology doesn't cause this problem.

Information & Ethics committee  Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. It's a privilege and an honour to be here in front of this assembled international committee. I appear before you this evening as an unlikely witness. I say that because I've spent pretty much my entire career promoting the virtues of the open Internet.
