AI Is Now "SI"?! Trump's Rebrand, Nvidia's $500B Chip Gamble & Is Time Travel Possible?
Bourbon with BradShow Notes
The Pour: Frank August Small Batch Bourbon — first impressions, tasting notes, and the official verdict.
Trump signs an executive order renaming AI to "SI" (Superintelligence), Elon says he’s going to rebrands SpaceXAI to SpaceXSI, and a new "SI Force" gets 120 days to figure out the federal response to AI’s potential threat to humanity. The FTC opens an AI-agent probe a day after the industry made a safety pact with the Trump administration.
Crypto Agent Update: Brad reports in on the AI agent he's training to monitor crypto market data — what it's catching, what it's missing, and where it goes next.
The guys then ask the real deep questions in “The Fifth Segment”: What would true artificial superintelligence actually be like? Is Time Folded Over? The mind-bending theory that all of time has already happened at once, and why that might make time travel physically possible. The Unabomber's Manifesto: And yes, the crew goes there. Ted Kaczynski's 35,000-word Washington Post published “Industrial Society and Its Future”, and why people keep bringing it up in the age of AI.
Pour a glass of your favorite bourbon and settle in as this one goes DEEP into the AI (or is it SI?) weeds.
