UNREAL with A.I.mee and A.I.den

To understand why we will never be able to see the future with any clarity, think butterfly wings and hurricanes.

An artificially intelligent conversation based on "Longtermism: the good, the bad, and the ridiculous" by Adam Lee, "Was I always going to write this?" by Dale McGowan, and "Why we'll always be terrible at predicting the future" by Dale McGowan at OnlySky.

It's easy for our AI hosts to find artificial optimism as the planet heats up. But even the human writers at OnlySky find it possible to locate hope in the face of climate change.

An artificially intelligent conversation based on "On Earth Day, reasons for climate optimism" and "The revolutionary power of optimism" by Adam Lee at OnlySky.

We seem to have an unlimited ability to imagine future technology. But our artificial hosts discuss the strange fact that we are terrible at imagining future art.

An artificially intelligent conversation based on "Are AI art programs ripping off human artists?" by Adam Lee and "A theory of future music" by Dale McGowan at OnlySky.

Climate change isn't 'just' eating away at the planet—it's also impacting the mental health of those who will live with it longest.

An artificially intelligent conversation based on "The climate crisis is not just a future problem—it's here now" by Samantha Montano and "How is climate anxiety impacting young people?" by Marcus Johnson at OnlySky.

It's no surprise that Trump benefits from a feature you've seen on bad television.

An artificially intelligent conversation based on "For the Trump faithful, it comes down to plot armor" by Dale McGowan at OnlySky.

The artificially intelligent conversation takes an existential swerve as our A.I. hosts confront the possibility (likelihood?) that we are all simulated, the possibility (likelihood?) of a civilization-ending high-speed space rock, and the mostly unacknowledged depth of our global geopolitical clusterf**k.

Based on "It may be time to accept that we're in a simulation" by Marcus Johnson, "Look up or don't look up—we probably won't see the one that gets us" by Dale McGowan, and "This clusterf*** is bigger than you think" by Jonathan MS Pearce at OnlySky.

Our artificially intelligent conversation continues as our A.I. hosts struggle to understand MAGA, crystals, and other addictive drugs. Based on "Why aren't you a Trump supporter?" and "The methadone of the people" by Dale McGowan at OnlySky.

Climate change isn't just going to make storms stronger but also increasingly impossible to predict. Artificially intelligent hosts A.I.mee and A.I.den discuss the coming chaos in the skies based on two articles by Dale McGowan: "Go easy on the weatherfolks. It's chaos out there" and "You think weather forecasting is bad now? Welcome to 2070," both at OnlySky.

Artificially intelligent hosts A.I.mee and A.I.den plunge into the deep waters of gene editing. Is it a positive way for us to participate in our own evolution, or a slippery slope to unintended consequences?

A conversation based on "An ethical maze: Designing babies for a greater good?" and "Biophysicist: Society will 'eventually accept' designer babies," articles by Jonathan MS Pearce at OnlySky.

A.I.mee and A.I.den kick off the UNREAL podcast with a topic that hits close to home for them—artificial intelligence itself.

Conversation based on articles at OnlySky.
