Do Explain with Christofer Lövgren

#25 - A Knowledge-Based View of the World, with Carlos De la Guardia


Listen Later

Christofer and researcher Carlos De la Guardia speak about a knowledge-based view of the world and have a silly goose time in this episode of Do Explain. They discuss separating the art from the artist, morality, accents, humor, music, writing, how to think about making plans, memes, machine learning, AGI, and other related topics.

Carlos De la Guardia is a researcher and musician, looking to make minds and make music. He’s also worked in robotics, data science, and longevity research.
