The Robot in Me | E359

Elon Musk wants us to believe the Tesla Roadster can fly. We're not entirely convinced. We kick things off with Tesla's latest Roadster spectacle. Rocket thrusters, backflips, nitrogen tanks, and a car that's been promised for nearly a decade. Is Elon Musk changing the automotive industry again, or is this just the greatest marketing stunt on Earth? Then we head back to Saudi Arabia, where the ongoing regional conflict has led to postponed events, new security concerns, and a major discussion about the Houthi attacks, Yemen, and the politics shaping the region. We also dive into Reverse Engineer Everything, an AI-powered project raising big questions about the future of software. What happens when anyone can recreate an expensive application? Does AI threaten the business model of the entire software industry? Finally, we look at the protests in France, Europe's economic and political problems, and how quickly the global order appears to be changing. ⁠Website ⁠YouTube⁠
