Here is a conversation that was supposed to preface a podcast episode devoted to a completely different subject. The show was summarized by Doris Acheng Odit of Odit Frontier Partners into about 6 major sections.

1. Polymaths, focus and identity

2. Purpose and profit

3. Adaptive Muscle vs. Static Dogma

4. Opaqueness and Access

5. AIs, LLMs and the Architecture of Thinking

6. Legacy and Continuity

We revisited these and other issues with the aim of helping shed more light on these subjects.
