Full Show 9/15/2026: Could AI turn on humans and take over the world?

On today's show, Dave Cohen speaks with Blaine Fisher, Tulane AI strategist, to unpack what is really happening on the front lines of artificial intelligence, how to navigate the ethical crossroad, what controls need to be put in place, and what ordinary people need to know to stay ahead in an automated world. Then, Brenda Douglas, Dean of the Program of Nursing at the Tulane School of Medicine, joins Dave to discuss how Tulane is using high-fidelity simulation labs to prepare nursing students to address critical shortages in just 16 months. Also, David Courcelle, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Louisiana, joins the show to break down the exact impact of "Operation Summer Heat 2.0," the multi-agency sweep that took direct aim at the most dangerous street gangs and repeat offenders, and what it means for the safety of your neighborhood. Finally, Valerie Cicero and Sue Stein, co-chairs of My Sunset on the Bucktown Boardwalk, join the show to talk about how the efforts are going to redevelop the prime waterfront in Jefferson and Orleans Parishes and invite you to join an unforgettable evening at the Bucktown Boardwalk for a signature celebration taking place on September 18th.
