Rogue Bots, Brain Chips, and Living Forever

from The Human Stack Hosted by Tal Swicegood

Rogue AI agents are already editing Wikipedia, AI companies won't promise their agents will follow the rules, and Neuralink wants to put a chip in your head. Jordan Hardgrave and I get into whether AI is moving too fast, and what it means for the rest of us. We cover free GPT-6 for everybody, ChatGPT vs Claude and what "value" really means, why long-running AI agents get bureaucratic, ChatGPT and teen mental health, whether we're all thinking less, the AI that solved 322 math problems, transhumanism and the mark of the beast question, an AI that lives in your ear, data privacy and surveillance, and the big one: would you want to live forever?
