Listen Later

A Wuhan-developed AI agent went viral this weekend. Guests Rohit Krishnan of the substack Strange Loop Canon, Shawn Wang of Latent Space, and Dean Ball of Mercatus and Hyperdimensional join us to discuss.

  • What Manus tells us about the broader AI ecosystem's ability to produce products we actually want to use
  • The political economy and liability issues that AI agents will engender
