Max Fisher returns to Offline to face the robot apocalypse with Jon. The two discuss Jacob Coxon, the AI researcher who publicly resigned from Anthropic this week, the terrifying claims coming from those working in AI that the technology may kill us all, and what it’ll take for politicians to actually attempt to regulate the fast-moving technology.

 

But first: Jon shares an exciting announcement about the future of the show.
