This week, High Society Radio goes full “Gulag Digital” as Chris Faga and Chris Stanley dive into collapsing social contracts, failed politicians, and the absurd state of modern AI. From Cuomo's alternate universe and Zohran Mamdani's political theatrics to Dick Cheney's final headline, the boys cover politics, tech, and conspiracy in equal measure. There's talk of Gitmo gift shops, AI bubbles bursting, and MrBeast's soul—if he even has one. By the end, it's a philosophical meltdown about who (or what) still has a soul: billionaires, animals, or maybe even LLM's.Topics Include:Gulag DigitalNYC's Mass ExodusOne-Way Ticket to MiamiThe End of the Social ContractA World Where Cuomo WonRIP Dick CheneyDSA as a Real Third PartyMamdani Is a WorkYou Can't Invest in Anything in NYCBig Ups to the Drone GodGitmo Has a Gift ShopMamdani vs Obama SpeechesHating the Mayor Isn't RacistDid Sliwa's Vote Matter?Cheney's Death During Zohran's VoteStory About Zohran's In-LawsCracks in AISoftBank Guy & Michael Burry Shorting AISam Altman: “AI Is Too Big to Fail”ChatGPT Loses Legal & Medical Advice AccessGiant OpenAI DealsGoogle Is Just an Ad FactoryIs the Bubble About to Pop?Redistributing a TrillionMrBeast LandWho Has a Soul: MrBeast, Peter Thiel, or Sam Altman?If the Devil Was RealDON'T FORGET TO WATCH FAGA'S NEW SPECIAL "BURN AFTER SAYING" ON THE HSR YOUTUBE PAGE!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxIHJU2LotUSupport Our Sponsors!https://yokratom.com/ - Check out Yo Kratom (the home of the $60 kilo) for all your kratom needs!Body Brain Coffee: https://bodybraincoffee.com/ - Grab A Bag of Body Brain Coffee with Promo Code HSR20 to get 20% off!https://fatdickhotchocolate.net/ Get you a fat dick at fatdickhotchocolate.netHigh Society Radio is 2 native New Yorkers who started from the bottom and didn't raise up much.

Kriss is joined by Justin this week. We spend a little bit of time talking about the Dem wins on election night and the government shutdown. It's (hopefully) becoming more clear to Americans (the majority) that the GOP's sole goal in life is to punish everyday Americans. Maybe just maybe they'll start to understand. But the majority of the episode is talking about how Tech Bros and their shareholders have absolutely lost their goddamn minds. First, there's Tesla shareholders approving a $1 Trillion compensation package for Elon Musk despite the fact that he hasn't actually delivered anything. What's worse is when you look at the terms of the pay package, it's clear that is is damn near impossible for him to achieve. 1 Million Tesla robots? No. 10 million autonomous driving subscriptions (they have 12% adoption rate currently)? Taking Tesla fro $1.5 trillion market cap to $8.5 trillion in 10 years? Will never happen. So instead it's just glazing a delusional CEO that hasn't actually built a damn thing himself. If you can, try to make it through his ridiculous remarks during the shareholder meeting. I dare you. But Elon and Tesla are just the tip of the iceberg. Sam Altman and Open A.I. have some how managed to convince of bunch of other rich people that giving them money to burn through is a good idea. Make no mistake. Openly lighting hundreds of billions of dollars on fire might actually be more useful and less damaging to the environment than the hundreds of billions of dollars being thrown at Open A.I to make a chatbot that is a slightly worse Google Chat and also might convince your kids to kill themselves. The financial numbers don't make sense. The products (that don't exist) don't make sense. The damage to the environment doesn't make sense. None of it makes sense. Except...it means "number go up".

My neologism-du-jour is “enstatification”. It's what is happening in MAGA America with Trump's Gaucho-style swaggering into the economy and his reversal to autarky and a back-to-the-future Monroe Doctrine. With the growth of a 19th-century style state power, America is trying to become the new China. Meanwhile, as Keith Teare notes in his latest That Was The Week newsletter, China is the new America in its embrace of technological innovation, particularly its trebling down on clean energy. That's why the “Too Big To Fail” debate about OpenAI is so heavily laced in irony. It's not just Sam Altman's chutzpah in trying to simultaneously become the punter and the house in his multi-trillion-dollar bet on ChatGPT. But it might actually reflect the new realities of second-quarter 21st-century America. We've been wondering for a while now what comes after neo-liberalism. In a neologism: enstatification. * China Has Already Won the Clean Energy Race—And That Changes Everything Keith Teare confirms what The Economist reported: China's clean energy capacity dwarfs America's by a decade or more. This isn't just about being green—it's about controlling the energy infrastructure that AI requires. China is becoming the 21st century's combination of America and Saudi Arabia.* Jensen Huang's Verdict: China Will Win the AI Race Because It Deregulates While America Bureaucratizes The NVIDIA CEO's provocative claim isn't just marketing—it reflects a real competitive advantage. While four Democratic states pursue AI regulation at the state level, Beijing is loosening regulations and slashing energy costs for data centers. Democracy's decentralization may be its Achilles heel in rapid technological competition.* OpenAI's “Too Big to Fail” Status Reveals the New Age of Enstatification Despite David Sacks' denials, OpenAI's strategic importance means it effectively cannot be allowed to fail—not because of systemic financial risk like 2008, but because of national competitiveness concerns. This isn't neoliberalism anymore; it's America's version of state capitalism.* The Real Convergence Isn't US vs China—It's Both Nations Embracing State-Directed Economies Trump's Intel investment, Sacks and Andreessen's push for centralized AI policy, and China's directed innovation represent a global trend toward what Keith calls state involvement in “procuring and distributing wealth.” Alibaba and Google, Huawei and NVIDIA—they're becoming more alike than different.* Keith Teare's Optimism: “Everyone Will Win” in the AI Economy—But Some Pigs Are More Equal: Keith argues this isn't a zero-sum race with winners and losers, but a rising tide lifting all boats through reciprocity. America and China will both capture massive value from AI's potential $26 trillion GDP boost by 2035. I remain skeptical: history suggests great power competitions don't end in shared prosperity.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

With the US racing to develop AGI and superintelligence ahead of China, you might expect the two countries to be negotiating how they'll deploy AI, including in the military, without coming to blows. But according to Helen Toner, director of the Center for Security and Emerging Technology in DC, “the US and Chinese governments are barely talking at all.”Links to learn more, video, and full transcript: https://80k.info/ht25In her role as a founder, and now leader, of DC's top think tank focused on the geopolitical and military implications of AI, Helen has been closely tracking the US's AI diplomacy since 2019.“Over the last couple of years there have been some direct [US–China] talks on some small number of issues, but they've also often been completely suspended.” China knows the US wants to talk more, so “that becomes a bargaining chip for China to say, ‘We don't want to talk to you. We're not going to do these military-to-military talks about extremely sensitive, important issues, because we're mad.'”Helen isn't sure the groundwork exists for productive dialogue in any case. “At the government level, [there's] very little agreement” on what AGI is, whether it's possible soon, whether it poses major risks. Without shared understanding of the problem, negotiating solutions is very difficult.Another issue is that so far the Chinese Communist Party doesn't seem especially “AGI-pilled.” While a few Chinese companies like DeepSeek are betting on scaling, she sees little evidence Chinese leadership shares Silicon Valley's conviction that AGI will arrive any minute now, and export controls have made it very difficult for them to access compute to match US competitors.When DeepSeek released R1 just three months after OpenAI's o1, observers declared the US–China gap on AI had all but disappeared. But Helen notes OpenAI has since scaled to o3 and o4, with nothing to match on the Chinese side. “We're now at something like a nine-month gap, and that might be longer.”To find a properly AGI-pilled autocracy, we might need to look at nominal US allies. The US has approved massive data centres in the UAE and Saudi Arabia with “hundreds of thousands of next-generation Nvidia chips” — delivering colossal levels of computing power.When OpenAI announced this deal with the UAE, they celebrated that it was “rooted in democratic values,” and would advance “democratic AI rails” and provide “a clear alternative to authoritarian versions of AI.”But the UAE scores 18 out of 100 on Freedom House's democracy index. “This is really not a country that respects rule of law,” Helen observes. Political parties are banned, elections are fake, dissidents are persecuted.If AI access really determines future national power, handing world-class supercomputers to Gulf autocracies seems pretty questionable. The justification is typically that “if we don't sell it, China will” — a transparently false claim, given severe Chinese production constraints. It also raises eyebrows that Gulf countries conduct joint military exercises with China and their rulers have “very tight personal and commercial relationships with Chinese political leaders and business leaders.”In today's episode, host Rob Wiblin and Helen discuss all that and more.This episode was recorded on September 25, 2025.CSET is hiring a frontier AI research fellow! https://80k.info/cset-roleCheck out its careers page for current roles: https://cset.georgetown.edu/careers/Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Who's Helen Toner?

At Donald Trump's inauguration earlier this year, the returning president made a striking break from tradition. The seats closest to the president – typically reserved for family – went instead to the most powerful tech CEOs in the world: Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos and Sundar Pichai. Between them, these men run some of the most profitable companies in history. And over the past two decades, they've used that wealth to reshape our public sphere.But this felt different. This wasn't discreet backdoor lobbying or a furtive effort to curry favour with an incoming administration. These were some of the most influential men in the world quite literally aligning themselves with the world's most powerful politician – and his increasingly illiberal ideology.Carole Cadwalladr has been tracking the collision of technology and politics for years. She's the investigative journalist who broke the Cambridge Analytica story, exposing how Facebook data may have been used to manipulate elections. Now, she's arguing that what we're witnessing goes beyond monopoly power or even traditional oligarchy. She calls it techno-authoritarianism – a fusion of Trump's authoritarian political project with the technological might of Silicon Valley.So I wanted to have her on to make the case for why she believes Big Tech isn't just complicit in authoritarianism, but is actively enabling it.Mentioned:The First Great Disruption 2016-2024, by Carole CadwalladrTrump Taps Palantir to Compile Data on Americans, by Sheera Frenkel and Aaron Krolik (New York Times)This is What a Digital Coup Looks Like, by Carole Cadwalladr (TED)The Nerve NewsMachines Like Us is produced by Mitchell Stuart.

La inteligencia artificial y las grandes compañías tecnológicas continúan siendo el motor principal detrás del crecimiento de Wall Street. Las colaboraciones estratégicas entre los gigantes del sector de la IA están impulsando los índices bursátiles y generando rentabilidades destacadas. La alianza más reciente que ha captado la atención del mercado es la de OpenAI y Amazon, ya que la empresa dirigida por Sam Altman empezará a utilizar la infraestructura de Amazon Web Services (AWS). Este anuncio provocó que las acciones de Amazon subieran un 4% en la última jornada y acumulen un incremento del 14% en solo dos días, alcanzando así niveles récord. Al mismo tiempo, se intensifican los rumores sobre una posible salida a Bolsa de OpenAI, impulsada por la necesidad de financiación derivada de sus costosos acuerdos. La operación entre ambas compañías, valorada en 38.000 millones de dólares, se desarrollará en dos etapas. En la primera, OpenAI aprovechará la infraestructura actual de AWS, mientras que en la segunda fase, Amazon construirá instalaciones adicionales específicamente diseñadas para la empresa de Altman. Además, OpenAI podrá acceder a los potentes procesadores gráficos de Nvidia, reforzando su capacidad de cómputo y consolidando la confianza en la nube de Amazon, que el pasado viernes experimentó un notable repunte bursátil. Este movimiento permite a Amazon reducir la brecha con sus competidores directos, Microsoft Azure y Google Cloud, en la batalla por el liderazgo del sector. Sin embargo, el volumen de inversión y los altos niveles de deuda en las tecnológicas han despertado temores sobre una posible burbuja financiera. Solo Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, Meta y Alphabet acumulan alrededor de 457.000 millones de dólares en deuda, mientras que OpenAI mantiene compromisos valorados en 1,4 billones. A pesar de las advertencias, varios analistas sostienen que el negocio de estas empresas sigue mostrando una gran fortaleza. Este nuevo acuerdo, además, marca una creciente distancia entre OpenAI y Microsoft. Aunque la firma de Redmond anunció recientemente una inversión adicional de 250.000 millones en Azure, su exclusividad con OpenAI terminó en enero, permitiendo a la desarrolladora de ChatGPT negociar libremente con otros proveedores de nube.
OpenAI has signed a $38 billion (£29 billion) deal with Amazon.The seven-year partnership gives OpenAI access to Amazon Web Services. It's the latest in a string of partnerships necessary to ensure what OpenAI CEO Sam Altman describes as the ‘massive, reliable compute' needed to scale up AI.Elsewhere, UK scientists have developed a gel that encourages teeth to regrow their own enamel - something long thought impossible.

Christopher Lochhead, the renowned “Godfather of Category Design,” recently took the stage at the Constellations Connected Enterprise 2025 conference and delivered a blistering wake-up call to every business leader, entrepreneur, and innovator hoping to surf the current wave of AI disruption. Far from celebrating the AI gold rush, Lochhead warned that almost everyone is about to repeat the same mistakes of the past, chasing after existing markets, adding AI features like “copilots” or assistants, and calling it innovation. Drawing from his decades of expertise and path-breaking research, He then laid out a blueprint for actually leveraging AI for exponential value: it's about category design, not incremental improvement. Here are three powerful takeaways from his masterclass that every forward-thinking leader needs to know. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go. Chasing “Better” Dooms You to Mediocrity Lochhead's central thesis is as provocative as it is true: companies that use AI to make existing products just a little better are doomed to fail. He calls this the "existing market trap." Instead of designing the future, most businesses simply bolt AI onto their old offerings, thinking it will make them competitive. But "if your strategy involves simply bolting on an AI assistant or copilot, you're making a pussy move and you're fucked." Lochhead points out that companies making this mistake are chasing a market that's already been designed by someone else. And in those markets, 76% of all the value goes to the category king (think OpenAI with ChatGPT). The rest fight for scraps, regardless of whether their AI copilot is a little nicer, faster, or more user-friendly. Winning is About Creating the New, Not Improving the Old The path to massive value in the AI era lies in doing what legends like Sam Altman, Jensen Huang, and Steve Jobs did: creating entirely new categories that didn't exist before. Lochhead illustrates this with both tech giants and quirky startups. He jokes about how Liquid Death became a force in the water business not by making better bottled water, but by launching “canned water”; an entirely new way to experience an old product with legendary branding and a distinct point of view. The same lesson holds for technology: “Different wins, better loses.” Lochhead encourages companies to listen to the language they use; calling your new AI product an “assistant” or “copilot” puts it in the sidecar, not the driver's seat. In contrast, declaring your invention as a new category not only reframes the problem, but magnetizes the future (as when OpenAI refused to call its core product a database, instead introducing the “large language model”). The Courage to Create: Why Category Design Demands Boldness Lochhead doesn't sugarcoat the difficulty of this path. Category design requires courage: “Grow a set of balls,” he tells the audience when asked how to nurture a creator's mindset. This isn't reckless advice; it's a recognition that in an AI-powered economy, the value of existing knowledge is collapsing toward zero. The knowledge worker, as Peter Drucker defined it, is being replaced by the knowledge contained within AI itself. The only safe (and rewarding) place is at the edge, inventing net new knowledge and value. In other words, creating the future instead of merely extending the present. Lochhead challenges all of us: “Do you really want to spend the last however many years of your career making the status quo incrementally better? Or do you want to spend whatever's left of your work life making a massive material difference?” To hear the full episode from the man himself, download and listen to this episode. We hope you enjoyed this episode of Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different™! Christopher loves hearing from his listeners.

Inside the AI Hype Spiral: Why Sam Altman, OpenAI, and Wall Street Are Betting Big—Even as the Bubble Threatens to Explode
In the final, cold winter months of the year, ChatGPT could be heating up.On October 14, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said that the “restrictions” that his company previously placed on their flagship product, ChatGPT, would be removed, allowing, perhaps, for “erotica” in the future.“We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues,” Altman wrote on the platform X. “We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.”This wasn't the first time that OpenAI or its executive had addressed mental health.On August 26, OpenAI published a blog titled “Helping people when they need it most,” which explored new protections for users, including stronger safeguards for long conversations, better recognition of people in crisis, and easier access to outside emergency services and even family and friends. The blog alludes to “recent heartbreaking cases of people using ChatGPT in the midst of acute crises,” but it never explains what, explicitly, that means.But on the very same day the blog was posted, OpenAI was sued for the alleged role that ChatGPT played in the suicide of a 16-year-old boy. According to chat logs disclosed in the lawsuit, the teenager spoke openly to the AI chatbot about suicide, he shared that he wanted to leave a noose in his room, and he even reportedly received an offer to help write a suicide note.Bizarrely, this tragedy plays a role in the larger story, because it was Altman himself who tied the company's mental health campaign to its possible debut of erotic content.“In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our ‘treat adult users like adults' principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.”What “erotica” entails is unclear, but one could safely assume it involves all the capabilities currently present in ChatGPT, through generative chat, of course, but also image generation. Today, on the Lock and Code podcast with host David Ruiz, we speak with Deb Donig, on faculty at the UC Berkeley School of Information, about the ethics of AI erotica, the possible accountability that belongs to users and to OpenAI, and why intimacy with an AI-power chatbot feels so strange.“A chat bot offers, we might call it, ‘intimacy's performance,' without any of its substance, so you get all of the linguistic markers of connection, but no possibility for, for example, rejection. That's part of the human experience of a relationship.”Tune in today.You can also find us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and whatever preferred podcast platform you use.For all our cybersecurity coverage, visit Malwarebytes Labs at malwarebytes.com/blog.Show notes and credits:Intro Music: “Spellbound” by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License

Megyn Kelly is joined by Rich Lowry, editor-in-chief of National Review, to discuss the attack by an illegal Afghan man on an innocent person in the UK, the truths it exposed about the dangers of illegal migration in America and Europe, why Megyn believes Islam is inconsistent with American values, the rejection by Islamic and Communist countries in Western values, Nicolle Wallace claiming no Democrats actually compare Trump to Hitler, the proof about how many on the left actually make that comparison including Wallace herself, Gavin Newsom and Jamie Lee Curtis' kind and thoughtful comments following Charlie Kirk's death, their recent retraction of those comments as the left becomes more hateful, and more. Then Matt and Maria Raine, parents of Adam Raine, and their lawyer Jay Edelson, join to discuss the tragic story of their son who took his own life, how they say he was encouraged to do so by ChatGPT, the dangers of the platform and their lawsuit against the company, the response from ChatGPT's founder Sam Altman about those who take their lives after interactions with his platform, the disturbing exchange between ChatGPT and Adam, the parents' mission to educate others about the dangers of this technology, and more.
