🎙️ Episode Summary

In this episode, we explore four major developments shaping the future of AI: Goodfire’s mission to decode black-box models, Mechanize’s controversial goal to automate all work, warnings from Bill Gates and Barack Obama on AI's threat to employment, and the UAE’s radical plan to use AI as a legislative co-author. From decoding neural networks to rethinking human purpose, we unpack how AI is rapidly shifting the ground beneath industries, governments, and society at large.
