Welcome back to the show! In today's jam-packed episode, we dig into underreported military casualties, a White House press ban that even Fox News refused to go along with, and the growing chorus of AI insiders warning that superintelligence could be an existential risk.
In this episode, we discuss:
The Pentagon's Missing Numbers: A Washington Post investigation reveals the real death toll from the Iran conflict may be significantly higher than what's been publicly disclosed, and the Pentagon isn't explaining the discrepancy.
The White House Media Ban: CNN, MSNBC, and Politico were banned from the White House, and in an unusual move, ABC, CBS, NBC, and even Fox News refused to cover the gap. Now it's headed to court as a First Amendment case.
AI's Reckoning: From a high-profile resignation at Anthropic to Geoffrey Hinton's closed-door warning to Congress, we break down the growing divide between what AI insiders say privately and what tech leaders say in public, plus the political money flooding into the fight over how (or whether) to regulate it.
We also cover a Franklin County data center vote that residents say was decided before a single public comment was heard.
Corruption, cover-ups, and so much more. Thank you for watching and we will be back next week with another amazing episode!
