Podcasts about Superintelligence

When companies began instituting return-to-office plans after the pandemic, a disproportionate number of women chose instead to leave the workforce. Why? The obvious answer is that they wanted the flexibility of remote work. But in this episode, Cal draws on a recent New York Times op-ed that offers a deeper explanation – one that affects all knowledge workers. He then explores solutions to the problem, answers listener questions, and (God help him) respond to comments on his recent Superintelligence episode.Below are the questions covered in today's episode (with their timestamps).

Cet épisode a été enregistré au Sénat, où se tenait le 31 octobre 2025 un colloque sur les dangers de l'intelligence artificielle, organisé par « Pause IA », un collectif déterminé à convaincre les gouvernements des risques à laisser émerger une intelligence artificielle générale (ou Super Intelligence)… développement qu'il juge potentiellement apocalyptique. Je suis allée à la rencontre du président de l'association en France, également des deux sénateurs qui accueillent le colloque, et des intervenants qui sont venus prendre la parole sur scène, pour entendre ce qu'ils ont à dire de l'IA.Au micro de POL/N : Ghislaine Senée, sénatrice des Yvelines, groupe Écologiste – Solidarité et TerritoiresMaxime Fournes, cofondateur et président de l'association Pause IAAxelle Arquié, cofondatrice de l'Observatoire des Emplois Menacés et EmergentsOlga Muss Laurenty, chercheuse spécialiste du développement de l'enfant, membre de Everyone.aiHenry Papadatos, directeur général de SaferAIThomas Dossus sénateur d'Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, groupe Écologiste – Solidarité et TerritoiresHébergé par Ausha.

Elections have consequences. Senate Republicans are talking about a deal to open the government, but Democrats aren't going for it without a commitment to extend healthcare subsidies. Then, the shutdown forces an information blackout on the economy. Plus, actor and director Joseph Gordon-Levitt joins to discuss why he joined hundreds of high-profile figures to call for a ban on AI “superintelligence”. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Episode 4898: AI Superintelligence, Outthinking the American Populis

Techno-philosopher Eliezer Yudkowsky recently went on Ezra Klein's podcast to argue that if we continue on our path toward superintelligent AI, these machines will destroy humanity. In this episode, Cal responds to Yudkowsky's argument point by point, concluding with a more general claim that these general styles of discussions suffer from what he calls “the philosopher's fallacy,” and are distracting us from real problems with AI that are actually afflicting us right now. He then answers listener questions about AI, responds to listener comments from an earlier AI episode, and ends by discussing Alpha schools, which claim to use AI to 2x the speed of education. Below are the questions covered in today's episode (with their timestamps).

It's been another big year in AI. The AI race has accelerated to breakneck speed, with frontier labs pouring hundreds of billions into increasingly powerful models—each one smarter, faster, and more unpredictable than the last. We're starting to see disruptions in the workforce as human labor is replaced by agents. Millions of people, including vulnerable teenagers, are forming deep emotional bonds with chatbots—with tragic consequences. Meanwhile, tech leaders continue promising a utopian future, even as the race dynamics they've created make that outcome nearly impossible.It's enough to make anyone's head spin. In this year's Ask Us Anything, we try to make sense of it all.You sent us incredible questions, and we dove deep: Why do tech companies keep racing forward despite the harm? What are the real incentives driving AI development beyond just profit? How do we know AGI isn't already here, just hiding its capabilities? What does a good future with AI actually look like—and what steps do we take today to get there?

Don't hold back guys, tell us how you really feel. If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies: Why Superhuman AI Would Kill Us All By: Eliezer Yudkowsky and Nate Soares Published: 2025 272 Pages Briefly, what is this book about? This book makes the AI doomer case at its most extreme. It asserts that if we build artificial superintelligence (ASI) then that ASI will certainly kill all of humanity.  Their argument in brief: the ASI will have goals. These goals are very unlikely to be in alignment with humanity's goals. This will bring humanity and the ASI into conflict over resources. Since the ASI will surpass us in every respect it will have no reason to negotiate with us. Its superhuman abilities will also leave us unable to stop it. Taken together this will leave the ASI with no reason to keep us around and many reasons to eliminate us—thus the “Everyone Dies” part of the title. What's the author's angle? Yudkowsky is the ultimate AI doomer. No one is more vocally worried about misaligned ASI than he. Soares is Robin to Yudkowsky's Batman.  Who should read this book? For those familiar with the argument I don't think the book covers much in the way of new territory.  For those unfamiliar with the argument I might recommend Superintelligence by Nick Bostrom instead. It makes the same points without being quite so tendentious.  Specific thoughts: The parable of the alchemists and the unfairness of life

When Daniel Kokotajlo talks to security experts at major AI labs, they tell him something chilling: “Of course we're probably penetrated by the CCP already, and if they really wanted something, they could take it.”This isn't paranoid speculation. It's the working assumption of people whose job is to protect frontier AI models worth billions of dollars. And they're not even trying that hard to stop it — because the security measures that might actually work would slow them down in the race against competitors.Full transcript, highlights, and links to learn more: https://80k.info/dkDaniel is the founder of the AI Futures Project and author of AI 2027, a detailed scenario showing how we might get from today's AI systems to superintelligence by the end of the decade. Over a million people read it in the first few weeks, including US Vice President JD Vance. When Daniel talks to researchers at Anthropic, OpenAI, and DeepMind, they tell him the scenario feels less wild to them than to the general public — because many of them expect something like this to happen.Daniel's median timeline? 2029. But he's genuinely uncertain, putting 10–20% probability on AI progress hitting a long plateau.When he first published AI 2027, his median forecast for when superintelligence would arrive was 2027, rather than 2029. So what shifted his timelines recently? Partly a fascinating study from METR showing that AI coding assistants might actually be making experienced programmers slower — even though the programmers themselves think they're being sped up. The study suggests a systematic bias toward overestimating AI effectiveness — which, ironically, is good news for timelines, because it means we have more breathing room than the hype suggests.But Daniel is also closely tracking another METR result: AI systems can now reliably complete coding tasks that take humans about an hour. That capability has been doubling every six months in a remarkably straight line. Extrapolate a couple more years and you get systems completing month-long tasks. At that point, Daniel thinks we're probably looking at genuine AI research automation — which could cause the whole process to accelerate dramatically.At some point, superintelligent AI will be limited by its inability to directly affect the physical world. That's when Daniel thinks superintelligent systems will pour resources into robotics, creating a robot economy in months.Daniel paints a vivid picture: imagine transforming all car factories (which have similar components to robots) into robot production factories — much like historical wartime efforts to redirect production of domestic goods to military goods. Then imagine the frontier robots of today hooked up to a data centre running superintelligences controlling the robots' movements to weld, screw, and build. Or an intermediate step might even be unskilled human workers coached through construction tasks by superintelligences via their phones.There's no reason that an effort like this isn't possible in principle. And there would be enormous pressure to go this direction: whoever builds a superintelligence-powered robot economy first will get unheard-of economic and military advantages.From there, Daniel expects the default trajectory to lead to AI takeover and human extinction — not because superintelligent AI will hate humans, but because it can better pursue its goals without us.But Daniel has a better future in mind — one he puts roughly 25–30% odds that humanity will achieve. This future involves international coordination and hardware verification systems to enforce AI development agreements, plus democratic processes for deciding what values superintelligent AIs should have — because in a world with just a handful of superintelligent AI systems, those few minds will effectively control everything: the robot armies, the information people see, the shape of civilisation itself.Right now, nobody knows how to specify what values those minds will have. We haven't solved alignment. And we might only have a few more years to figure it out.Daniel and host Luisa Rodriguez dive deep into these stakes in today's interview.What did you think of the episode? https://forms.gle/HRBhjDZ9gfM8woG5AThis episode was recorded on September 9, 2025.Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Who's Daniel Kokotajlo?

Read the full transcript here. Are the existential risks posed by superhuman AI fundamentally different from prior technological threats such as nuclear weapons or pandemics? How do the inherent “alien drives” that emerge from AI training processes complicate our ability to control or align these systems? Can we truly predict the behavior of entities that are “grown” rather than “crafted,” and what does this mean for accountability? To what extent does the analogy between human evolutionary drives and AI training objectives illuminate potential failure modes? How should we conceptualize the difference between superficial helpfulness and deeply embedded, unintended AI motivations? What lessons can we draw from AI hallucinations and deceptive behaviors about the limits of current alignment techniques? How do we assess the danger that AI systems might actively seek to preserve and propagate themselves against human intervention? Is the “death sentence” scenario a realistic prediction or a worst-case thought experiment? How much uncertainty should we tolerate when the stakes involve potential human extinction? Nate Soares is the President of the Machine Intelligence Research Institute and the co-author of the book If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies. He has been working in the field for over a decade, after previous experience at Microsoft and Google. Soares is the author of a large body of technical and semi-technical writing on AI alignment, including foundational work on value learning, decision theory, and power-seeking incentives in smarter-than-human AIs.

Craig Kaplan has been thinking about superintelligence longer than most. He bought the URL superintelligence.com back in 2006, and many years before that, in the late 1980s, he co-authored a series of papers with one of the founding fathers of AI, Herbert Simon.Craig started his career as a scientist with IBM, and later founded and ran a venture-backed company called PredictWallStreet that brought the wisdom of the crowd to Wall Street, and improved the performance of leading hedge funds. He sold that company in 2020, and now spends his time working out how to make the first superintelligence safe. As he puts it, he wants to reduce P(Doom) and increase P(Zoom).Selected follow-ups:iQ CompanyHerbert A.

In this episode, Christian Szegedy, Chief Scientist at Morph Labs, joins us to discuss how the application of formal mathematics and reasoning enables the creation of more robust and safer AI systems. A pioneer behind concepts like the Inception architecture and adversarial examples, Christian now focuses on autoformalization—the AI-driven process of translating mathematical concepts from their human-readable form into rigorously formal, machine-verifiable logic. We explore the critical distinction between the informal reasoning of current LLMs, which can be prone to errors and subversion, and the provably correct reasoning enabled by formal systems. Christian outlines how this approach provides a robust path toward AI safety and also creates the high-quality, verifiable data needed to train models capable of surpassing human scientists in specialized domains. We also delve into his predictions for achieving this superintelligence and his ultimate vision for AI as a tool that helps humanity understand itself.

For centuries, humans have wrestled with the mysteries of the cosmos, from the invisible dark matter and dark energy that shape the universe, to hidden dimensions, parallel universes, and the ultimate fate of all cosmic structures. Such questions force us to consider not only the physics of the universe, but the possibility that non-human intelligence—whether biological or artificial—could exist far beyond Earth, or perhaps also closer to home. This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we look at some of the greatest modern mysteries of the cosmos, as well as the question of whether there is life elsewhere in the universe. If so, could it have already created its own artificial intelligence, and might such alien AI have evolved to superintelligent levels, and could some phenomena we observe today, such as UAP, be linked to such entities?  Have you had a UFO/UAP sighting? Please consider reporting your sighting to the UAP Sightings Reporting System, a public resource for information about sightings of aerial phenomena.
