Dr. Matthew Guzdial joins the podcast to break down how (and if!) AI is reshaping video game design, and why the gap between what's being promised and what's actually shipping is bigger than anyone wants to admit. We also get into VR as a cautionary tale; basically what happens when hype outruns infrastructure, why that pattern is playing out again, and what it means for anyone building or betting on the next wave of creative Technology.Connect with Matthew:Website: https://guzdial.comBluesky: https://matthewguz.bsky.socialLinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/matthew-guzdial-170a1360Google Schola…

Nick Hunt joins the podcast to break down why the stories our civilisation tells itself are broken, why progress is one of the most limiting and overlooked myths holding humanity back, and what it means that most of us are sleepwalking through a collapsing world. We also get into the uncivilised frameworks that can expand the way you think and feel, and what Nick believes it will take for humanity to wake up to a deeper and more honest relationship with the earth.Connect with Nick:Website: https://nickhuntscrutiny.comDark Mountain: https://dark-mountain.netPodcast Info: Spotify: https://open.…

Adam Dickinson joins the podcast to break down what intuition actually is, why logic alone is one of the most limiting and overlooked barriers to human potential, and what it means that most of us are operating from only a fraction of our true Consciousness. We also get into the spiritual frameworks that can expand the way you think and feel, and what Adam believes it will take for humanity to evolve beyond the mind and into a deeper intelligence.Connect with Adam: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adam-r-dickinson/Podcast Info: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1ILhje5HSua1FEOlTyFA…

David Roberts of Mara Labs joins the podcast to break down what microplastics are, why air is one of the biggest and most overlooked sources of exposure, and what it means that most of us are consuming the equivalent of a credit card's worth of plastic every week. We also get into concrete Lifestyle changes you can make right now to reduce your intake, and what Mara Labs is building to tackle the problem at scale.Connect with David: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-roberts-7170416/Website: https://mara-labs.comPodcast Info: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1ILhje5HSua1FEOlTyFA…

For this episode, I'm joined by Professor Matthew Taylor, an Amii Fellow and Canada CIFAR AI Chair at Amii and a Professor of Computing Science at the University of Alberta. He is the Director of the Intelligent Robot Learning (IRL) Lab and a Principal Investigator at the Reinforcement Learning & Artificial Intelligence (RLAI) Lab, both at the University of Alberta. In this episode, we basically sprint. I don't think there is a breath taken between questions on AI, Canadian policy, Russian disinformation strategies, and the emotional turbulence of ChatGPT's release from the perspective of …

For this episode, I'm joined by Rick Tumlinson, co-founder of the Space Frontier Foundation and one of the most influential figures in the commercial space industry. In this episode, we slice the conversation into four categories: the social history of the space movement and how we got here; the business of space and the astropolitics shaping who controls the final frontier; the genetics and ethics of humanity becoming a multi-planetary species; and the deeper philosophy of why leaving Earth isn't just raw and blind ambition but something closer to destiny (for some people).Timestamps: 0:00 …

For this episode, I’m joined by Alex Hernandez Garcia, a core academic member at Mila (the Quebec AI Institute) and a professor at the Université de Montréal.In this episode, we move past the hype to expose the friction between corporate monopolies and open science, the massive disconnect between research progress and commercial deployment, and why current tech policies are failing to address our planetary boundaries. From using generative machine learning to discover green materials, to a raw breakdown of why "AGI" is a loaded term with dark, eugenic roots, this episode will catch anyone …

For this episode, I’m joined by Alistair Alexander, a researcher specializing in the ecologies of technology. In this episode, Alistair and I discuss the underlying physical architecture of AI—specifically how the digital world isn't ethereal, but a massive industrial system bound by the hard limits of energy, physics, and planetary boundaries.Connect with Alistair: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alistair-alexander-4a488170/Substack: https://reclaimedsystems.substack.comPodcast Info: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1ILhje5HSua1FEOlTyFAhGApple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3qX…

I'm joined by Dr. David Alter, a clinical health psychologist and neuropsychologist who's spent over 30 years studying the intricate connections between mind, brain, and body. Dr. Alter reveals the underlying architecture of human experience, specifically how chaos and unity aren't opposing forces but fundamental patterns that shape everything from our neural networks to our relational dynamics and spiritual lives. Connect with Dr. Alter: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drdavidalter/Podcast Info: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1ILhje5HSua1FEOlTyFAhGApple Podcasts: https://app…

Dr. Karl Friston is Professor of Neuroscience at UCL and one of the most cited scientists alive. His work on the free energy principle has transformed our understanding of the brain, consciousness, and intelligence.Probably the coolest thing that's happened to me, the world's most influential neuroscientist talked about my book, AI for Gen Z, and interviewed me on it. We ended up in this wild conversation spanning the free energy principle, how Gen Z's relationship with technology is fundamentally different from previous generations, the nature of time and prediction, and why understanding AI …

I’m joined by Zoltan Istvan, the world’s most influential transhumanist and candidate for Governor of California.  Zoltan reveals the radical, high-stakes shifts occurring in the minds of the world's most powerful disruptors as they prepare for a world where biology is no longer the limit.We dive into Zoltan’s vision for a post-scarcity world where Universal Basic Income becomes the foundation of society as AI and robots take over the burden of labor. He discusses the shifting human experience—what we actually do with our lives once work is optional—and outlines his platform for Gov…

How is the boardroom actually preparing for the year 2026?I’m joined by Shashank Tiwari, the CEO of Uno.AI and a seasoned Silicon Valley executive. We discuss the massive transition from the "AI experimentation" phase of 2024 to the "operational reality" of 2026, and he reveals the high-stakes conversations happening behind closed doors in the world’s most influential C-suites.In this episode:We start by looking at the 2026 playbook for large-scale enterprises. We start by deconstructing the 2026 roadmap for large-scale enterprises. Shashank pulls back the curtain on how boards are moving …
