Every major AI company has the same safety plan: when AI gets crazy powerful and really dangerous, they'll use the AI itself to figure out how to make AI safe and beneficial. It sounds circular, almost satirical. But is it actually a bad plan?Today's guest, Ajeya Cotra, recently placed 3rd out of 413 participants forecasting AI developments and is among the most thoughtful and respected commentators on where the technology is going.She thinks there's a meaningful chance we'll see as much change in the next 23 years as humanity faced in the last 10,000, thanks to the arrival of artificial general intelligence. Ajeya doesn't reach this conclusion lightly: she's had a ring-side seat to the growth of all the major AI companies for 10 years — first as a researcher and grantmaker for technical AI safety at Coefficient Giving (formerly known as Open Philanthropy), and now as a member of technical staff at METR.So host Rob Wiblin asked her: is this plan to use AI to save us from AI a reasonable one?Ajeya agrees that humanity has repeatedly used technologies that create new problems to help solve those problems. After all:Cars enabled carjackings and drive-by shootings, but also faster police pursuits.Microbiology enabled bioweapons, but also faster vaccine development.The internet allowed lies to disseminate faster, but had exactly the same impact for fact checks.But she also thinks this will be a much harder case. In her view, the window between AI automating AI research and the arrival of uncontrollably powerful superintelligence could be quite brief — perhaps a year or less. In that narrow window, we'd need to redirect enormous amounts of AI labour away from making AI smarter and towards alignment research, biodefence, cyberdefence, adapting our political structures, and improving our collective decision-making.The plan might fail just because the idea is flawed at conception: it does sound a bit crazy to use an AI you don't trust to make sure that same AI benefits humanity.But if we find some clever technique to overcome that, we could still fail — because the companies simply don't follow through on their promises. They say redirecting resources to alignment and security is their strategy for dealing with the risks generated by their research — but none have quantitative commitments about what fraction of AI labour they'll redirect during crunch time. And the competitive pressures during a recursive self-improvement loop could be irresistible.In today's conversation, Ajeya and Rob discuss what assumptions this plan requires, the specific problems AI could help solve during crunch time, and why — even if we pull it off — we'll be white-knuckling it the whole way through.Links to learn more, video, and full transcript: https://80k.info/ac26This episode was recorded on October 20, 2025.Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Ajeya's strong track record for identifying key AI issues (00:00:43)The 1,000-fold disagreement about AI's effect on economic growth (00:02:30)Could any evidence actually change people's minds?

The Breggin Hour with Dr. Peter & Ginger Breggin – Investigative journalist Leo Hohmann examines the push for mandatory automobile kill switches and warns of an expanding surveillance state backed by both major political parties. As government, technology, and elite interests converge, personal freedom and constitutional limits face growing threats in an age of digital control and centralized power...

In this episode of Gangland Wire, host Gary Jenkins, retired Kansas City Police Intelligence Unit detective, steps outside traditional Mafia territory and into a shadowy world just as dangerous—and just as fascinating: the international theft of ultra-rare automobiles.  Gary is joined by author Stayton Bonner, former senior editor at Rolling Stone, and legendary car-recovery specialist Joe Ford, the real-life figure behind Bonner's book The Million Dollar Car Detective. At the center of the story is a breathtaking pre-World War II automobile—the Talbot-Lago Teardrop Coupé—once described as the most beautiful car in the world. Stolen from a Milwaukee industrialist's garage in 2001, the car vanished into the international underground of elite collectors, forged paperwork, and high-stakes deception. Joe Ford explains how he became the go-to investigator when rare cars worth millions disappear—and why stolen vehicles are far harder to recover than stolen art. What follows is a years-long global hunt involving disgruntled mechanics, fabricated titles, shell corporations, Swiss intermediaries, and a billionaire buyer now locked in civil litigation. Bonner adds rich historical context, tracing the car's glamorous past—from European aristocracy to Hollywood royalty—and exposing how loneliness, obsession, and greed often surround these legendary machines. The conversation expands into other notorious cases, including the disappearance of the original James Bond Aston Martin from Goldfinger, and how wealthy collectors sometimes knowingly harbor stolen artifacts. This episode is a true-crime story without guns or gangs—but filled with deception, betrayal, and the relentless pursuit of justice across borders. If you love investigative work, high-end crime, and stories that feel like James Bond meets Gone in 60 Seconds, this one's for you.

The show starts with a review of the 2026 Nissan Leaf, which Benjamin tested out in the most wintery of conditions. How did the already limited range keep up with the low temperatures? And what about its handling of the snowy roads? Benjamin shares his experiences and more in this somewhat affordable EV. Then Sami tests out one of the bigger SUVs out there, the 2025 Ford Expedition Tremor. Able to haul 8 passengers and deal with off roading, this big truck-based family hauler has some cool new tech to discuss, and some worth nitpicking. Finally the show ends on a discussion about Mazdas new approach to their cars, namely cost cutting. Are they the only ones? Thanks for listening!

Doug and Sarah's podcastThe War on Cars is a podcast that delivers news and commentary on the latest developments in the worldwide fight to undo a century's worth of damage wrought by the automobile, approaching the topic from all angles, from politics to pop culture. They release two regular episodes and one Patreon bonus episode per month.Doug and Sarah's BookCars ruin everything. That's why we need Life After Cars.When the very first cars rolled off production lines, they were a technological marvel, predicted to make life easier and better for everyone; yet a hundred years later, that dream is running on empty.Instead of unbounded freedom, the never-ending proliferation of automobiles has delivered a host of costs, among them the demolition of our neighborhoods, towns, and cities to make way for car infrastructure; an epidemic of violent death; countless hours lost in traffic; isolation from our fellow human beings; and the ongoing destruction of the natural world.That's why we need Life After Cars. Through historical records, revealing interviews, and unflinching statistics, Sarah Goodyear and Doug Gordon, hosts of the podcast The War on Cars, and former host Aaron Naparstek unpack the scale of damage that cars cause, the forces that have created our current crisis and are invested in perpetuating it, and the way that the fight for better transportation is deeply linked to the fight for a more equitable and just society.Life After Cars expands on the podcast with new interviews and original content—offering something for everyone, from longtime listeners familiar with the harms of car culture to those just beginning to imagine a world with fewer metal boxes zooming around.Cars as we know them today are unsustainable—but there is hope. Life After Cars will arm readers with the tools they need to implement real, transformative change, from simply raising awareness to taking a stand at public forums.It's past time to radically rethink—and shrink—society's collective relationship with the automobile.The podcast: The War on CarsThe book: Life After Cars Hosted on Acast.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1268: Today we cover Lithia's reluctance to sell Chinese brands in the U.S., Stellantis quietly bringing diesel back to Europe as EV demand cools, and how companies like Canva and Meta are now testing job candidates on how well they use AI instead of banning it.Show Notes with links: Lithia Motors CEO Bryan DeBoer signaled the company is not planning to be an early retailer of Chinese vehicles in the U.S. or Canada, citing the lack of a built-in service base to support long-term profitability.DeBoer said without an established fleet of vehicles on the road, new Chinese brands would not provide the recurring service traffic dealerships rely on.After-sales generated 41% of Lithia's gross profit in 2025 with a 58% gross margin.Lithia currently sells several Chinese brands in the U.K., including BYD, MG, Chery, Leapmotor and Jaecoo, across a “double-digit” number of stores.DeBoer said entering the U.S. market would require a broader partnership with a Chinese automaker, including greater control over after-sales operations and potentially pricing, in order to make the economics work without an existing service base.Stellantis is quietly reintroducing diesel engines across at least seven models in Europe, positioning the automaker against Chinese EV competitors and responds to sustained customer demand.Diesel accounted for just 7.7% of European new car sales in 2025, compared to 19.5% for fully electric vehicles, but remains a lower-cost alternative for high-mileage and towing customers.Chris Knapman, CarGurus UK editorial director: “If you're a European brand looking to differentiate yourself, diesel is an area where you could have a competitive advantage over those newer brands.”A growing number of companies are no longer trying to prevent candidates from using AI during interviews — they're encouraging it. Firms like Canva, Meta and McKinsey are redesigning hiring processes to evaluate how well applicants work with AI tools.Canva reworked technical interviews to allow — and expect — AI use, focusing on complex problems where candidates must show how they interact with the tool, not just the output.Candidates share their screens or submit AI chat transcripts so interviewers can evaluate judgment, iteration and decision-making.Arcade, an IT startup, now expects candidates to use AI in take-home exercises, emphasizing a candidate's “taste” and ability to refine AI-generated work.Meta is developing AI-assisted coding interviews, and McKinsey is piloting case interviews using its internal AI tool, Lilli.“What we're testing for now … is an ability to harness that power, to control that power — to kind of ride the dragon,” said Canva CTO Brendan Humphreys.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/
