Peter Voss, an AI pioneer who coined the term "Artificial General Intelligence" (AGI), joined the podcast to discuss the current state and future of AI. Voss argues that the current focus on large language models (LLMs) and brute-force methods is a dead end, and that true AGI requires a fundamentally different approach rooted in understanding human intelligence. He criticizes the reliance on backpropagation and massive datasets, advocating for neuro-symbolic systems that learn autonomously and adapt in real-time. Voss believes that AGI will revolutionize scientific research, reduce costs through automation, and provide personal assistance to enhance human flourishing. He envisions AGI as a rational "angel on our shoulder," helping us make better decisions and navigate an increasingly complex world. Voss estimates that with a dedicated team, adult-level AGI could be achieved within 18-24 months, emphasizing the importance of efficient architectures and a focus on quality over quantity of data.

Anna Gudmundson from Sensate discusses the Sensate device, a wellness tool that uses bone conduction to deliver sub-audible frequencies to the sternum, combined with sound therapy to tone the vagus nerve and promote relaxation. Users experience it as an internal sound bath, providing an easy way to self-regulate the nervous system, especially when meditation is difficult. Sensate focuses on relaxing users rather than teaching relaxation techniques. Its effectiveness was demonstrated at CES, where nearly 400 sessions showed a surprising calming effect on first-time users.

Sensate improves sleep, biomarkers, and vagal nerve function by lowering heart rate, respiratory rate, and skin temperature while boosting theta brainwaves. Users feel relaxed quickly, managing stress and anxiety. Future plans include funding and R&D expansion. Sensate, inspired by co-founder Stefan Chmelik's healthcare work. Unlike AR/VR and other similar devices, it aims for users to self-regulate without the device, promoting stress relief and better sleep, which are vital for overall health and longevity.

Today Circe, a queer escort and dom, joined the conversation to discuss legislative issues surrounding Section 230, government censorship, age verification and online privacy. Section 230, enacted in 1995, protects free speech and websites from liability for user-generated content, but faces potential repeal. Online ID checks, adopted in 19 states, raise concerns about hacking vulnerabilities, unreliable and biased facial recognition, and discouragement of user interaction. The Kid Online Safety Act (KOSA) is criticized as dangerous censorship that could harm queer communities and limit access to vital resources. The discussion also covered the Take It Down Act, which mandates the removal of non-consensually distributed intimate imagery, with no provisions limiting online encryption and free speech. We urge listeners to contact representatives, vote, and advocate for policies that protect privacy, freedom of expression and more.
