Beschrijving

This week we take a look at some viral TikTok clips and react to the insane testimony of Google's Eric Schmidt asking for unlimited energy and an abolition of regulation to help them build nuclear power plants to fuel their catastrophic war of choice with China over AI. And we watch a baffling roundtable discussion at Andreessen Horowitz where a few tech bros opine on the future of capitalism where no one has any money to afford to buy anything because AI has put them out of work. But don't worry, building robots to colonize the galaxy is the new GDP. Or something. I'll have what they're smoking.

E071: Agents, Bunkers, and Cults: the new ABCs of AI

From the CEO of an Agentic AI company telling you that agentic AI is the inevitable future (surely not because he's financially incentivized to make you believe that), to billionaires buying bunkers in New Zealand to flee when the revolution comes for them after their AI has put all of us out of work, to the cult of personality that Sam Altman has built up around himself like some Dollar Store Timothee Chalamet Dune dictator wannabe, there's a lot of nonsense flying around these days.
