The duo will also be discussing the growing influence of YouTube, its class of video-first creators, and how the site is helping redefine media. Oh, and there will be probably be a question or two about Logan Paul.
Steve Huffman: Reddit co-founder Steve Huffman took back the reins of the social news site in at a time of heightened controversy when Reddit was caught between its commitments to free speech and its hosting of increasingly hateful and bigoted communities.

The term blockchain is a nebulous one , referring in often tangential ways to the underlying peer-to-peer structure of cryptocurrency systems. Keynotes from Wojcicki and Harris will likely address those issues in great depth, as will a talk from Sen. Mark Warner D-VA , who has pushed tech platforms to reveal more about how Russian operatives used them during the election.
Other sessions will attempt to identify solutions to our information crisis — using artificial intelligence, for example, or placing more emphasis on fact-checking. Isle of Dogs: The new stop-motion animated film from director Wes Anderson, Isle of Dogs , will likely be the most talked-about film screening of SXSW, taking place on one of the final days of the festival and acting as the official North American premiere.
