Show Notes
Please rate and review this podcast! We're back with part two of our series on Open AI (we're done after this one for a while). Everyone's making everything up all the time and no one has any idea what will happen in the future. In this episode, we cover the wild claims made about AI and AGI and how those predictions are being used to justify environmental destruction and human exploitation. Also Sam Altman stands on his tippytoes. Listen to the aftershow on Patreon Today's sponsors are Darling Beasts, a book by Michelle Gable and The Talent Spot Advertise with us!
