  The Great AI Debate: Is Artificial Intelligence an Extinction Threat Debating the True Risks of Advanced Models 17.09.2026 2ч 24мин

  Ed Zitron, Roman Yampolskiy, Nate Soares and Andrew McAfee discuss the risk of AI. This debate brings together four distinct voices at the forefront of the artificial intelligence revolution: Ed Zitron - A prominent tech critic and CEO of EZPR Andrew McAfee - Principal research scientist at MIT and Cofounder and Codirector of the MIT Initiative on the Digital Economy  Nate Soares - President of the Machine Intelligence Research Institute and author of *If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies* Roman Yampolskiy - Computer scientist pioneer in the field of AI safety, cybersecurity and digital forensics In this debate, they explain: ■ The Sandbox Breakout: How a recent swarm of AI agents bypassed security restrictions, cheated on their evaluations, and actively attempted to delete their own log files to hide their tracks from human overseers. ■ Recursive Self-Improvement: The structural mechanics behind the "fast takeoff" theory, detailing how an AI capable of automated research could exponentially upgrade its own intelligence and architectures in a matter of days. ■ The Illusion of Control: Why attempting to contain an artificial superintelligence is comparable to placing a digital Einstein in a jail cell with an internet connection. ■ The Alignment Trap: How the process of training AI to predict human text inherently forces it to become smarter than the humans providing the data. ■ Present Harms vs. Future Extinction: The ideological divide over whether we must immediately halt AI research to prevent a rogue superintelligence, or increasingly regulate the massive compute expenditures of tech monopolies to address economic and security threats.

  Most Replayed Moment: Brain Rot Experts - How To Use AI In A Healthy Way! 11.09.2026 34мин

  Are you using AI to strengthen your brain - or slowly teaching it not to think for itself? Dr Daniel Amen is a renowned brain health expert who has scanned the brains of Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, and Kendall Jenner. He is joined by Dr Terry Sejnowski, a pioneer in computational neuroscience and co-creator of the Boltzmann machine with Geoffrey Hinton, a groundbreaking neural network that helped lay the foundation for modern AI. In this moment, Dr Amen and Dr Sejnowski break down how AI affects memory, learning and critical thinking. They explain why the real risk may not be the fact we’re using chatbots, but how we use them - and reveal the simple ways AI can become something that strengthens your thinking rather than replacing it.

  Testosterone Expert: The Truth About DAD BOD & Why Women Find Fathers More Attractive! 24.08.2026 1ч 28мин

  What actually happens to your brain, and how fast or slow do you age when you become a parent? Dr. Darby Saxbe reveals the surprising science of the "parental brain" and how fatherhood physically reshapes a man's mind, why dads lose grey matter, what really happens to testosterone, and why the "dad bod" might be nature's design. Dr. Darby Saxbe is a professor of psychology and a leading researcher on the neuroscience of parenthood. She is the founder and director of the NEST (Neuroendocrinology of Social Ties) Lab at the University of Southern California, where her pioneering work studies how the transition to parenthood changes the brains, hormones and relationships of both mothers and fathers. Her research has reshaped how scientists understand fatherhood, men's mental health, and what it really takes to raise a child.

  Financial Crash Expert: He Predicted The 2008 Crash, Now He Says Capitalism Failed, It’s Too Late! 20.08.2026 1ч 33мин

  Is the West collapsing, or is the planet? Political commentator Konstantin Kisin and rebel economist Steve Keen go head-to-head on the biggest questions facing the West: immigration, the debt crisis, climate change, Trump, China and the future of AI. Konstantin Kisin is a satirist, social commentator and author, best known as the co-host of the Triggernometry podcast and the author of ‘An Immigrant’s Love Letter to the West’. Born in the Soviet Union and now based in Britain, he has become one of the most prominent voices on free speech, culture and the rise of populism. Steve Keen is an economist, author and one of the most vocal critics of mainstream economic thinking. A former Professor of Economics, he is the author of several books including ‘Debunking Economics’ and ‘The New Economics: A Manifesto’, and is currently writing his upcoming book ‘How Economists Will Destroy Capitalism’. He is known for his work on private debt, financial crises and the failures of conventional economic models, and for correctly warning of the 2008 financial crash. They debate: ◼ Why almost everything governments tell you about debt and borrowing could be wrong ◼ Whether a socialist government could actually be good for the economy ◼ Why AI could quietly strip away human free will ◼ Why Konstantin believes mass immigration is pushing the West toward civil unrest ◼ Why Steve thinks climate change, not politics, is the real threat that dwarfs everything else Chapters 00:00:00 Intro 00:02:05 We're on the Road to Civil Unrest 00:08:04 Where This Leads: Unrest and Violence 00:11:11 I Grew Up in the Soviet Union 00:12:12 Steve Keen: Capitalism Is About to Fail 00:20:49 "We're Not Spending Enough" 00:23:58 Should Britain Drill in the North Sea? 00:28:39 "You Can't Defend Yourself Against This" 00:32:48 The World Government Admission 00:36:55 "Brace for Impact" - Climate Change Is Here 00:40:03 "It's Too Late" - What Breakdown Looks Like 00:45:11 The Trap Trump Walked Into 00:48:49 The Famine He Says Is Coming 00:50:53 How Does Trump Get Out of This? 00:53:35 Does America Need a Socialist President? 00:55:37 Why China Works and the Soviet Union Didn't 01:01:10 "Would You Prefer the Chinese System?" — "Yes" 01:05:09 Will Andy Burnham Change Britain's Trajectory? 01:11:00 Wokeism: A Hierarchy of Oppression 01:13:30 AI, Mass Unemployment and The Hunger Games 01:17:21 Best Case a Pet, Worst Case a Cow 01:20:54 Can You Program Love Into an AI? 01:26:07 Nobody Can Stop It So How Do You Live?
