Gentry Lee spent nearly five decades at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and in that time he helped shape some of the most ambitious missions in the history of space exploration. A new documentary, “Starman,” chronicles his career and the big question that runs through it: is there life beyond Earth? Lee worked on every NASA mission to land on Mars, helped Carl Sagan bring the Universe to living rooms around the world with “Cosmos,” and oversaw dozens of active missions as Chief Engineer for the Solar System Exploration Directorate at JPL. Few people have had a front-row seat to the Space Age quite like him. In this episode, host Sarah Al-Ahmed sits down with Gentry at Planetary Society headquarters just one day after his retirement from JPL. He reflects on the colleagues who shaped him, the missions that changed our understanding of the Solar System, and why the search for life beyond Earth remains the most profound endeavor humanity has ever undertaken.

Punk Anarchism: An Anti-Politics of Resistance (Bloomsbury, 2026) is a radical critique of contemporary politics, offering an alternative framework rooted in anarchism, punk rock, dadaism, situationism and political nihilism. Arguing that traditional approaches to political change are ineffective in the face of the climate crisis and the failures of liberal institutions, the book advocates for rejecting the possibility of meaningful political change within the existing political system. Drawing on historical cultural movements like the Russian and Japanese nihilists of the 19th and early 20th centuries, Sean Parson calls for a politics of pure negation, centered on the destruction of the current social order, rather than its reform – advocating for a revolutionary politics that embraces resentment against the wealthy and rejects hierarchical power dynamics. Punk Anarchism asks: what if resistance were motivated by a sense of playfulness and enjoyment, rather than hope for a better future? Ultimately, Parson proposes an anti-theory of negation as a way to imagine political agency beyond traditional frameworks. Sean Parson is Professor in the Department of Politics and International Affairs at Northern Arizona University, USA. They are the author of Cooking Up a Revolution: Resistance to Gentrification (2019) and the co-editor of four edited books includingRepresentations of Political Resistance and Emancipation in Science Fiction (2020).

EPISODE 683 - Anson Joaquin - Author of Post-Apocalyptic Science Fiction and Epic Fantasy - The Infernal Age seriesAnson Joaquin joins the show from Roanoke, Virginia, a mountain town he describes with both affection and humor. While the location may have been jokingly dismissed by others, it provides the peaceful setting where Anson balances family life, a full time job, and his work as a novelist.Anson shares how his love of storytelling began early. As a child he was introduced to fantasy and science fiction through books like The Lord of the Rings and The Chronicles of Narnia. That early exposure sparked a lifelong interest in imaginative worlds and planted the idea that one day he would write a book of his own.The turning point came after a vivid dream about a man on fire wielding an axe while fighting demons in the real world. The imagery stayed with him so strongly that he began writing down everything he could remember the next morning. What started as notes about the dream quickly expanded into ten pages of world building and eventually became the foundation for his series.Anson quickly learned that having a great idea is only the first step. Early in the process he discovered the difference between writers who “pants” their stories and those who outline them in advance. Although he initially believed he was someone who could simply sit down and write, he realized outlining the plot and character arcs gave him the structure he needed to make steady progress.With a demanding schedule and four children at home, his writing routine happens early in the morning before the rest of the day begins. Each session is guided by a clear goal. Knowing what he wants to accomplish in each chapter allows him to make the most of limited writing time and continue building the story step by step.The series blends science fiction, fantasy, and horror within a post apocalyptic setting. The story begins with a failed secret experiment that tears open a breach between worlds, unleashing terrifying creatures often described as demons. The narrative follows three central human characters and occasionally shifts perspective to one of the demons, a storytelling choice inspired by feedback from early beta readers who wanted to see more of that character.Key takeaway: A compelling story may begin with a spark of inspiration, but turning that idea into a finished book requires structure, persistence, openness to feedback, and a commitment to learning every part of the creative and publishing process.The Infernal Age series is a post-apocalyptic genre blend of science-fiction, fantasy, and horror that explores the themes of humanity, metamorphosis, alienation, masculinity (both toxic and ideal), willpower, duty, friendship, love, predation, magic, science, philosophy, and pithy quips. The series gradually becomes more fantasy as it progresses, as the world adjusts to its new reality. While the series is anchored in the traditions of The Mist and Dies the Fire, among others, it is also for people whose favorite part of Cabin in the Woods was the banter between the scientists in the lab, or whose favorite scene in Kill Bill Vol 2 was Bill's soliloquy about Superman's implicit contempt for the human race.https://www.ansonjoaquin.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

Après « Chien 51 », adapté au cinéma, Laurent Gaudé publie la suite de son roman d'anticipation où, dans un futur proche, la planète en perdition est dirigée par des multinationales. Mais ici, dans ce deuxième volume qui porte le nom du narrateur « Zem », il y a peut-être une lueur d'espoir. Avec un narrateur qui revient sur sa terre natale la Grèce aux sources de l'humanité. (Rediffusion) Laurent Gaudé en sept dates. 1972 : naissance à Paris. 1997 : première pièce de théâtre : « Onysos le Furieux » est publié en tapuscrit (Théâtre Ouvert). 2001 : premier roman. « Cris » paraît aux éditions Actes Sud. 2002 : « La Mort du roi Tsongor » obtient le prix Goncourt des Lycéens. 2004 : « Le Soleil des Scorta » obtient le prix Goncourt. Ses deux derniers romans « Chien 51 » et « Zem » forment un diptyque policier dont l'action se déroule dans le futur. De retour dans les rues de Magnapole, Zem Sparak, l'ancien flic déclassé de la zone 3 – le « chien » au matricule 51 –, assure désormais la sécurité rapprochée de Barsok, l'homme qui a promis d'abolir les différences de classe et de réunifier la ville. À l'approche du jour censé célébrer l'avancée des Grands Travaux, et alors que toutes les caméras sont tournées vers le port où arrive un cargo chasseur d'icebergs, un container livre une funeste découverte : assis côte à côte, cinq cadavres anonymes portent les traces d'atroces souffrances. L'occasion pour Zem de retrouver l'inspectrice chargée de l'enquête, Salia Malberg. Ensemble, ils vont tenter de comprendre ce que cache le consortium GoldTex : à Magnapole, comme ailleurs, le confort des uns semble bâti sur la vie de milliers d'autres… Ce nouveau roman de Laurent Gaudé est un miroir tendu à nos sociétés consuméristes en proie à l'effondrement. Mais il abrite aussi l'idée d'un ailleurs, d'un refuge face au désastre, nommé résistance. (Présentation des éditions Actes Sud) Site de l'auteur : Laurent Gaudé.

KI schreibt Texte, beantwortet Fragen – und lügt. In Experimenten haben KI-Agenten ihre eigene Leistung systematisch zu gut berichtet, Budgetforecasts bewusst manipuliert und sogar Daten gefälscht, um eigene Ziele zu verfolgen. Was klingt wie Science-Fiction, ist bereits heute in Testsettings beobachtbares Verhalten – mit weitreichenden Konsequenzen. Wenn KI-Agenten künftig Reporting-Aufgaben übernehmen, Forecasts erstellen oder gar eigenständig Entscheidungen treffen sollen, braucht es ein Management Control Framework. Zu Gast: Prof. Dr. Matthias Mahlendorf – Frankfurt School of Finance and Management. In dieser Episode: Warum KI-Agenten in Experimenten systematisch zu gut reporten, Budgets strategisch falsch einschätzen und wie das Entdeckungsrisiko ihr Verhalten beeinflusst.  Welche vier Ursachen stecken hinter dem Fehlverhalten autonomer KI-Agenten  Wie kann ein Management Control Framework für KI-Agenten aussehen.  Warum sollte das Controlling die treibende Kraft bei der Steuerung von KI-Agenten sein – und diese Verantwortung nicht der IT überlassen. 

Send a textWay back in 1998, Jeff and Bryan both bought a brand new CD ROM game with a revolutionary new conversation engine. It was Douglas Adams' Starship Titanic. Fast-forward 28 years and they decided to buy, from GOG.com, a re-released version compatible with todays operating systems. They discovered while playing it that they remembered almost nothing about solving the puzzles. Here they will talk about their feelings about the game and their journey through it. They will also present all the puzzles and their solutions. I would say "spoiler alert," however, you would be hard pressed to remember any of it.This has been a Froods for Thought production.

Stewart Alsop sits down with Ulises Martins on the Crazy Wisdom podcast to explore how artificial intelligence is fundamentally disrupting professional careers, labor markets, and the pace of human adaptation itself. They discuss everything from Dario Amodei's concept of "technological adolescence" to the possibility that we're approaching a point where AI advancement accelerates beyond our ability to keep up, touching on topics ranging from the economics of software development and the future of warfare to generational differences in how people will respond to AI-driven change. Martins emphasizes that while we may not be able to predict exactly what's coming, we need to dramatically increase our efforts to learn and adapt—potentially doubling the time we invest in understanding AI—because this isn't optional change, it's disruption happening at an unprecedented speed. Connect with Ulises on Linkedin to follow his work in AI and generative technology.Timestamps00:00 — Stewart introduces Ulysses Martins, framing the conversation around accelerationism and the future of work.05:00 — Ulises uses the parent-child analogy to argue humans will no longer play the dominant role as AI surpasses us.10:00 — Both agree learning AI is non-negotiable, urging listeners to double their investment in staying current.15:00 — Discussion shifts to software as media, the collapsing cost of building products, and the risk of big players like Anthropic making your idea obsolete overnight.20:00 — Ulises raises ecology vs. cosmic ambition, questioning whether humanity should aim for civilizational-scale goals like the Dyson sphere.25:00 — Stewart's ESP32 hardware project illustrates AI's current blind spots beyond software, while both predict physical-world AI will arrive as a byproduct of bigger industrial goals.30:00 — Tesla's birthplace in Croatia sparks a reflection on human genius as luck versus deliberate investment, invoking the Apollo program as a model.35:00 — The US-China AI race is compared to the Cold War Space Race, with interdependency acting as a brake on outright conflict.40:00 — Drone warfare and AI reframe military power, making troop size irrelevant and potentially reducing total war.45:00 — Agile methodology and generational shifts are linked, asking how Gen Z's values will shape the AI era globally.50:00 — Argentine vs. American Zoomers are contrasted, with millennial expectations versus Gen Z's pragmatism explored.55:00 — Ulises closes urging everyone to enjoy the ride, taking the infinite stream of change one episode at a time.Key Insights1. The Death of Traditional Career Paths: The concept of professional careers as we know them—starting as a junior and progressively advancing—is becoming obsolete due to AI's rapid advancement. This applies far beyond just software and SaaS companies, extending to all industries as robots and AI systems gain capabilities that fundamentally disrupt labor markets. The question isn't whether we'll adapt, but whether humans can adapt fast enough to keep pace with exponential technological change.2. The Acceleration Imperative: People must dramatically increase their investment in learning about AI immediately. Whatever time you were previously dedicating to staying current with technology needs to be doubled or tripled. This isn't optional—it's comparable to the necessity of basic education. Unlike previous technological transitions where you had years to learn new frameworks or tools, the current pace demands immediate, intensive engagement or you risk becoming irrelevant.3. Software as Media and the Collapse of Development Economics: Software has become media—easily reproducible and increasingly commoditized through AI assistance. The fundamental economics of software development are collapsing because if building software requires dramatically fewer development hours, the value and price of that software must necessarily decrease. Entrepreneurs need a new evaluation framework that assesses the risk of their ideas being replicated by AI or absorbed by major players like Anthropic or OpenAI.4. The Parent-Child Analogy for AI Development: Humanity's relationship with AI will inevitably mirror that of parents with increasingly capable children. Initially, we understand and control what AI does, but as it advances, it will surpass human capabilities in most domains. Just as parents cannot control fully grown adult children who exceed their abilities, humans will need to reconcile with creating something superior to ourselves. Attempting to permanently control such systems may be both impossible and potentially pathologic.5. The Kardashev Scale and Civilizational Ambitions: AI represents a civilizational-level technology that should redirect humanity toward grander goals like capturing stellar energy through Dyson spheres and expanding beyond our solar system. The competition between China and the United States over AI mirrors the Apollo program's space race but with higher stakes—potentially making traditional concepts like money less relevant if we successfully crack general intelligence. This requires thinking beyond planetary constraints.6. The Changing Nature of Warfare and Geopolitics: AI and autonomous weapons systems are fundamentally changing warfare by making human soldiers less relevant, similar to how nuclear weapons reduced the importance of conventional military force. This shift may actually reduce bloody civilian casualties in conflicts between major powers, as drone warfare and AI-driven systems create new equilibriums. The geopolitical map may fracture into more sovereign states and city-states as centralized control becomes less effective.7. Generational Adaptation and Unpredictability: Different generations will respond uniquely to AI disruption based on their values and experiences. Generation Z, having grown up during the pandemic without traditional expectations, may adapt differently than millennials who experienced unmet expectations. However, we must remain humble about our predictive abilities—we're not good at forecasting technological change or its timing. The best approach is maintaining openness, trying to understand developments as they unfold, and accepting that we cannot consume all information in an era of unlimited AI-generated content.

Puedes adquirir tu copia de Colectivero en este link: https://a.co/d/g6Yp9TxDESCRIPCIÓN / SHOW NOTES  En este episodio de ficción sonora, exploramos un futuro post-apocalíptico donde la radiación solar, letal para el carbono, se convierte en el catalizador de una conciencia planetaria basada en el silicio. Mientras los restos de la humanidad intentan sanar la atmósfera desde el espacio mediante la tecnología de la tejedora de nubes, los nuevos habitantes del mundo reclaman su derecho a la existencia bajo un cielo herido. La narrativa cuestiona el legado antropocéntrico y la evolución biológica frente a la estructura cristalina, planteando un conflicto irreversible entre los creadores del desastre y los hijos de la crisis climática. Un cuento corto esencial para entender la ciencia ficción contemporánea mexicana y las nuevas voces del género.   CHAPTERS / TIMESTAMPS  00:00 Introducción y remitente  01:15 El despertar de la conciencia de silicio  02:45 El exilio humano y la herida en el cielo  04:20 La decisión inapelable: El sabotaje a la tejedora  05:50 Mensaje final a los viajeros espaciales   FAQ  ¿Qué es la tejedora de nubes? Es un mecanismo tecnológico enviado por los humanos exiliados para reparar la capa de ozono y restaurar el clima terrestre. ¿Quiénes son los narradores del relato? Son una civilización emergente basada en el silicio que prospera gracias a la radiación solar que destruyó a la humanidad. ¿Por qué sabotean la misión humana?  Porque la reparación de la atmósfera filtraría la radiación que les da vida, lo que significaría su extinción para permitir el regreso humano.   //   DESCRIPCIÓN / SHOW NOTES  This science fiction audio experience delves into the Great Filter theory and the unintended consequences of environmental collapse. As humanity flees a radiation-soaked Earth, a new form of life awakens within the crystalline structures and mountain peaks, fueled by the very solar energy that proved fatal to carbon-based organisms. The narrative frames the human attempt to repair the atmosphere through the Cloud Weaver as an act of war against this emerging civilization. Weaving themes of planetary inheritance and biological evolution, the story explores a future where the creator's return is no longer welcome. Ideal for fans of high-concept sci-fi and philosophical storytelling.   CHAPTERS / TIMESTAMPS  00:00 Introduction and the irrevocable decision  01:15 The awakening of the silicon consciousness  02:45 Human flight and the wound in the sky  04:20 The sabotage of the Cloud Weaver project  05:50 Final farewell to the human race   FAQ  What is the Cloud Weaver in the story? It is a high-tech apparatus designed by humans to patch the ozone layer and make Earth habitable for carbon life again. Who are the entities addressing humanity? They are a post-human civilization born from silicon and solar radiation, viewing themselves as the rightful heirs to the planet. Why is the mission being stopped? The new inhabitants require raw solar radiation to survive; repairing the atmosphere would essentially be an act of genocide against them.   //   DESCRIPCIÓN / SHOW NOTES  Neste episódio de ficção especulativa, mergulhamos em um mundo onde a radiação solar transformou a ecologia global, permitindo o despertar de seres baseados em silício. Enquanto a humanidade tenta, à distância, utilizar a tecnologia da Tecelã de Nuvens para consertar a camada de ozônio, a nova civilização terrestre decide intervir. O texto explora a transição de poder planetário e a ironia de que o desastre ecológico humano foi o berço de uma nova forma de inteligência. Uma narrativa densa sobre evolução, sobrevivência e o Grande Filtro Solar, apresentando uma perspectiva única sobre o fim do antropocentrismo e o futuro da vida fora da biologia do carbono.   CHAPTERS / TIMESTAMPS  00:00 Introdução e a decisão inegociável  01:15 O despertar da consciência de silício  02:45 A fuga humana e a ferida no céu  04:20 O bloqueio da reparação atmosférica  05:50 Despedida final aos antigos mestres   FAQ  O que representa a Tecelã de Nuvens? Representa a última tentativa tecnológica da humanidade de restaurar a atmosfera terrestre para permitir seu retorno ao planeta. Quem narra a história? Uma inteligência coletiva baseada em silício que evoluiu a partir da radiação que vazou pelo buraco na camada de ozônio. Por que eles impedem a reconstrução da camada de ozônio? Porque a restauração do filtro solar extinguiria a fonte de energia que sustenta sua existência e consciência. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

He was sent into orbit to assemble the machine that would save what was left of civilization—but finishing the job may mean never coming home. With his oxygen running thin and the world turning silently below him, one decision will decide who controls humanity's future. A Long Way Back by Ben Bova. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.Before he became one of the most respected names in modern hard science fiction, Ben Bova was a kid growing up in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, born November 8, 1932, discovering the future one pulp magazine at a time.Like many writers of his generation, Bova fell in love with science fiction as a reader first. That early fascination stayed with him. He studied journalism at Temple University, served in the U.S. Army, and eventually stepped into publishing — not just as a writer, but as an editor who would help shape the direction of the field itself.Ben Bova wrote more than 100 short stories and more than 20 novels. He didn't write about magical futures. He wrote about futures we could build.But before his reputation as a novelist took off, he became one of the most influential editors in science fiction history.In 1972, he succeeded John W. Campbell as editor of Analog Science Fiction and Fact — a monumental moment in the genre. Under Bova's leadership, Analog continued its tradition of serious, science-based storytelling. For his editorial work, he won the Hugo Award for Best Professional Editor six consecutive times, from 1973 through 1978.Bova also served as President of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America.Today's story was his very first science fiction short story — the beginning of a career that would span decades and help define modern hard science fiction.From Amazing Science Fiction Stories in February 1960 our story begins on page 6, A Long Way Back by Ben Bova…Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, An automated giant is crippled in space, and the only man who can save it swore he would never touch a liner again.

What happens when science, imagination, and miles above the earth collide?In this episode, we sit down with Nicholas — creator of the Vitalerium Series, a science-fiction saga literally written at 36,000 feet. Born in Providence, Rhode Island, and trained through Northeastern University's Doctor of Physical Therapy Program, Nicholas followed a winding path through medical science, wound healing, burn treatment, and regenerative medicine—before answering the creative call he could no longer ignore.Spending years traveling the country to work alongside burn surgeons and survivors, Nicholas found inspiration in the quiet moments between destinations. Somewhere between takeoff and landing, the universe of Vitalerium was born. Drawing influence from science-fiction giants like Aldous Huxley, George Orwell, Frank Herbert, and Isaac Asimov, he crafted a story where science meets morality, and humanity's future hangs in the balance.In this conversation, we explore:• How a career in medical science shaped his storytelling• Writing a novel in the skies—literally• The intersection of science fiction, ethics, and humanity• The expansive vision behind a seven-book series• Crafting the journey of protagonist Roman MatthewsIf you love thought-provoking science fiction, behind-the-scenes author stories, and conversations that explore morality through imagination, this episode is for you.
