Trump won't stop Al despite doomer tantrums | PW Pod ft. Mike Solana & Bridget Phetasy

This week on the pod, we’re joined by the great @Liv_Boeree! We’re breaking down another crazy week in the AI tech space. From Trump inviting all the tech leaders to DC, to renaming AI to “Super Intelligence”, to Bernie’s AI bill endorsed by doomer groups. We also discuss the infamous data center party in DC that our own Jonas Du put together. Next up, we have @katrosenfield join us to discuss the controversial “Cornell 7” SI case that is taking over the discourse. Kat provides us with insights from her piece that she just wrote in The Free Press. Finally, a white pill! The government made a website that actually doesn’t suck.

Welcome back to the pod! Bridget Phetasy returns to the Pirate Wires podcast as one of our esteemed cohosts. This past week, the internet was consumed by the AI doomerism conversation. The tech people are supporting AI at all costs, the doomers are making their opinions heard, and we at Pirate Wires.. are unsure. We dive into all of the discourse, how Peter Thiel predicted the AI antichrist, the white pill of AI, and we even get into Sydney Sweeney's boobs.

EPISODE #97: This past week, the U.S. found itself on the brink of WWIII due to the Iran/Israel crises. Will Trump get us involved in another war? To be honest, none of us want to talk about this, but it’s present in every part of our culture right now. To cope, we get into the viral clip of Tucker calling out Ted Cruz. Elsewhere in the news, the hottest new trend for Dems is to get arrested, and the March To Gaza ends at the hands of Egyptian police. Finally, we make the case why every American needs to be in shape, and Solana gives us his white pill, why we are truly living in amazing times right now.Featuring Mike Solana, Riley Nork, Brandon Gorell, Simone Collins, Malcolm CollinsWe have partnered with AdQuick!
