As fears about artificial intelligence dominate the headlines, Craig W. Stanfill’s science-fiction thriller Carbon Zero is arriving at a remarkably timely moment. The longtime AI pioneer joins Mike to explore the frightening possibilities behind a rogue AI, from taking down the power grid to unleashing cyberattacks, while explaining why the technology is already too widespread to simply put back in the bottle. Stanfill draws on decades of experience in artificial intelligence to separate legitimate risks from the panic, arguing that the real challenge is figuring out how to use AI to defend against the threats AI itself creates. Their conversation gets into the increasingly human behavior of today’s AI, the dangers of giving powerful systems goals they may pursue in unexpected ways, and why cybersecurity may ultimately require AI to fight AI.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mike pushes back on the growing sense of political doom surrounding the midterms, arguing that Republicans risk talking themselves into defeat before voters even head to the polls. With Congress taking another lengthy break after just seven workdays and establishment Republicans like George Will and Karl Rove openly breaking with Trump-era politics, Mike sees a broader fight over whether the Republican Party will remain focused on the voters who put it in power. He acknowledges the very real frustrations over gas prices, the economy and the war with Iran while making the case that those concerns shouldn't erase the administration's record on taxes, immigration and the border. The question Mike keeps coming back to is whether conservatives will show up despite the pessimism—or allow what he calls the “doomers” and “RINOs” to convince them that the fight is already lost.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mike sets the record straight on his position regarding mass migration, admitting he was wrong to separate the debate over illegal immigration from concerns about the broader impact of mass migration on American communities. He also examines the latest developments surrounding Charlie Kirk’s assassination, including the Kirk family’s plans to pursue legal action over alleged security failures that they say could have prevented his death. Mike then turns the spotlight to Israel’s Magen David Adom, speaking with the organization’s chief of staff about the emergency medical teams responding to terror attacks and other crises across Israel.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
