OnlyLands Ep. 65: AI's China Problem, Adelson Gossip & a Trump Roast

from Badlands Media · host Badlands Media

The crew tackles a genuinely interesting theory this week: that Sam Altman and other AI lab heads are quietly begging governments for regulation while China's open weight models keep blowing up their plans, essentially forcing an AI arms race nobody asked for. There's also a dive into why NATO officials seem baffled by JD Vance's silence on the Iran war, some spicy speculation about the Adelson family and a certain senator that starts as a joke and gets weirder the longer they talk about it, and a read of a scathing Trump bit aimed at late night hosts that somehow turns into a Stephen Colbert nostalgia tour (RIP funny Colbert). Add in some election security grumbling, an AI facial ID tangent, and a genuine debate about whether Hollywood's box office woes are self inflicted, and you've got a pretty packed Friday night.
