Beskrivelse

Nukes, Bioweapons, and logistics collapse: these are just three threats that incredibly powerful human technologies have spawned. How must we as humans change our behaviors, society, or biology to use the power we attain through technology for good?

episode Framework For Human Truth cover

Framework For Human Truth

If something is true for you, is it true for everyone else? Why can two otherwise reasonable people arrive at very different conclusions? In my senior year of high school I produced an original philosophical framework for analyzing "the Truth." I believe that to move beyond petty disagreement and into meaningful resolution we need to have a better, more realistic way of understanding what exactly it means for something to be "True."

The Elephant in the Classroom

In the current moment it feels like every field is being disrupted by AI, and that includes even the most stubborn of institutions. In the field of education, we are at an inflection point: adopt or reject? In this episode, I argue for the embrace of machine learning tools by educators and the education system at large, and I explain how the two actually go together much better than you might think.
