Cosmic Sponge

The Singularity and AI Overlords


Listen Later

Fire, the wheel, bronze, the printing press, automobiles, moving pictures, flying machines, sliced bread, computers, and the internet all leading to the inevitable Singularity.  At some point in the future, Skynet or something like it, will emerge from the efforts of mankind.  Will it be the end of us or a bright shiny new future?  From Elon Musk to Stephen Hawking, we look to tomorrow and try to see beyond the event horizon of the future they and other modern geniuses predict.  Stick around while the AI Overlords are still learning to crawl, it's gonna be a good one!
