    #189 - Nate Soares - Why Superintelligent AI Could Kill Us All
    2026/06/29
    Nate Soares joins me to discuss the race to superintelligent AI, why alignment remains unsolved and why he believes building machines smarter than humanity could end in catastrophe.Nate explains why modern AI is not programmed like traditional software, but grown through training processes we do not fully understand. We discuss AI escaping labs, recursive self-improvement, why today’s systems are only safe because they are not yet powerful enough to take over and why the danger may not be that AI hates us, but that it does not care about us at all.We also get into OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, xAI - the AI companies racing ahead despite the risks, why “turning it off” may not be possible, the case for an international treaty against superintelligence, and why Nate believes we should not give up before the driver wakes up.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 - AI That Doesn’t Care About Us00:01:04 - If Anyone Builds This, Everyone Dies00:04:17 - If He’s Right, We Lose Everything00:07:28 - Why Nate Isn’t Anti-AI00:08:32 - From Google and DeepMind to AI Risk00:11:00 - Why Can’t We Make AI Care About Us?00:16:07 - We Can Look Inside, But We Don’t Understand It00:17:20 - The Moment Nate Decided to Write the Book00:20:24 - The Senator Who Already Understood the Risk00:24:04 - How AI Goes From Useful to Terrifying00:32:17 - Could AI Live on a Portable Drive?00:36:13 - Are the AI CEOs Listening?00:39:53 - Why Would We Accept a 10% Risk?00:43:40 - Conor’s Point: We Don’t Get a Choice00:51:10 - Are We Already Racing Towards the Cliff?00:58:28 - The AI That Threatened a Reporter01:15:53 - What Would Winning Look Like?01:21:38 - What Can Ordinary People Do?01:26:31 - Are We Just a Simulation for AI?01:34:26 - Don’t Give Up Before the Driver Wakes Up- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -CONTACT PETE› Website – http://petermccormack.com› Feedback – https://www.petermccormack.com/contact› Email – me@petermccormack.com› Instagram – /mccormack555› X/Twitter – https://x.com/petermccormack/CONNECT WITH NATE SOARES› Website – https://intelligence.org/› Book – https://ifanyonebuildsit.com/› X/Twitter – https://x.com/So8resSPONSORS› IREN - https://www.iren.com/› Plaud - https://www.plaud.ai/mccormack› Incogni - https://incogni.com/peter- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE› Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/40ruY9K› Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3Wc94Vu› Fountain: https://bit.ly/FountainPM› YouTube: https://bit.ly/YouTube_PM› Rumble: https://bit.ly/RumblePMFILMED BY CURTIS TAYLOR› https://www.curttaylor.co.uk/› https://x.com/curttayloruk/EDITED BY CONOR MCCORMACK› https://x.com/ConorM04- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hosted on Acast.

    #188 - Rizwan Virk - Simulation Theory, Quantum Physics & The Impact Of AI
    2026/06/26
    Rizwan Virk joins me to discuss simulation theory, AI, consciousness and why reality may work more like a video game than a physical universe.Rizwan explains how his experience in the video game industry, virtual reality, venture capital and MIT led him to take the simulation hypothesis seriously. We discuss VR ping pong, AI-generated worlds, smart NPCs, quantum physics, rendered reality, lazy programming, the observer effect, the metaverse Turing test and whether someone may have already built the simulation we are living in.We also get into Philip K. Dick, déjà vu, synchronicity, the simulated multiverse, DMT, UFOs, the problem of evil, life as a quest, near-death experiences, karma, death and whether we would rather live in base reality or a simulation.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 - Are We in Base Reality?00:00:59 - Why Simulation Theory Won’t Go Away00:02:55 - The VR Ping Pong Moment00:05:39 - Could We Build a Simulated World?00:06:12 - AI-Generated Reality00:08:36 - Rendering Only What You See00:09:48 - Quantum Physics and the Observer00:12:56 - The Universe as Lazy Programming00:14:11 - How Far Are We From the Simulation Point?00:21:28 - Mapping a Brain Into a Digital World00:26:09 - The Metaverse Turing Test00:33:42 - Did Somebody Already Build Us?00:36:25 - The Simulated Multiverse00:40:04 - Philip K.

    #187 - Danny Goler - DMT, Consciousness & Proof of the Simulation
    2026/06/24
    Danny Goler doesn't just argue we're living in a simulation - he claims he's found a way to interact with whoever is running it and that we are the AI they're training before we're "let out to play." His case for simulation theory is built on the hard problem of consciousness, the DMT "code," and a laser experiment that thousands of people say they can replicate.In this interview we discuss idealism vs physicalism, whether AI can ever be conscious, the "architect" running infinite worlds to answer one unanswerable question, why he thinks the Ten Commandments were an alignment manual and what changes about how we should live if any of it is true.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 - Proof We Live in a Simulation?00:01:03 - The Hard Problem of Consciousness00:02:49 - Can Matter Create Experience?00:04:50 - What Is Consciousness?00:05:04 - Is Consciousness Fundamental?00:08:24 - Is the Universe Conscious?00:11:35 - Does Consciousness Need an Observer?00:16:45 - Can the Hard Problem Be Solved?00:20:08 - Could AI Become Conscious?00:23:48 - AI Black Boxes and Consciousness00:28:56 - Why Does Consciousness Exist?00:31:15 - Are We Living in a Simulation?00:35:45 - Are Humans the AGI in Training?00:40:41 - DMT and Other Realities00:45:07 - The DMT Molecule00:48:51 - The Entity in the Room00:58:32 - The Laser Code Experiment01:03:04 - 10,000 People Seeing the Same Code01:15:48 - Testing the Code of Reality01:20:28 - Can We Escape the Simulation?- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -CONTACT PETE› Website – http://petermccormack.com› Feedback – https://www.petermccormack.com/contact› Email – me@petermccormack.com› Instagram – /mccormack555› X/Twitter – https://x.com/petermccormack/CONNECT WITH DANNY GOLER› YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@dangothoughts› Danny’s Website - https://dannygoler.com/› Retreat Website - https://corretreat.com/ › Newsletter - https://go.codeofreality.org/start--aeeea› Non-profit website - https://codeofreality.org/› IG - https://www.instagram.com/dannygoler/› Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61586952941889› X - https://x.com/GolerDannySPONSORS› IREN - https://www.iren.com/› Ledn - https://ledn.io/peter- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -LISTEN / SUBSCRIBE› Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/40ruY9K› Spotify: https://spoti.fi/3Wc94Vu› Fountain: https://bit.ly/FountainPM› YouTube: https://bit.ly/YouTube_PM› Rumble: https://bit.ly/RumblePM- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -FILMED BY CURTIS TAYLOR› https://www.curttaylor.co.uk/› https://x.com/curttayloruk/EDITED BY CONOR MCCORMACK› https://x.com/ConorM04- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Hosted on Acast.
