In this eye-opening episode of The Tea with Myriam François, we sit down with AI expert Dr. Jaya Klara Brekke, a pioneering voice at the crossroads of technology and justice, to expose the hidden world of AI, surveillance, and data monopolies.


From Palantir’s disturbing reach in global scandals to the growing militarisation of AI and the ethical dilemma of Neuralink, we dive deep into the dangerous intersection of technology, power, and control. We expose the blurring lines between private tech companies and governments, as well as the immense power wielded by unelected billionaires.


We also explore why AI is becoming the defining arms race of our generation. And with chatbots now playing the role of therapists, we ask: Can we trust AI with our most personal information?

In this episode, we unpack:


🛑 Tech Libertarianism: Freedom or Corporate Control?

🛑 The Real Face of Technofascism and Surveillance

🛑 Palantir’s Role in Data Scandals

🛑 AI: The New Arms Race of Our Generation

🛑 Why We Should Be Wary of AI Therapy


This conversation isn’t just about tech—it’s about power, privacy, and who’s pulling the strings in our digital lives.
