AI bubble, Sam Altman’s Manifesto and other fairy tales for billionaires (Ep. 272)

Data Science at Home

Welcome to Data Science at Home, where we don’t just drink the AI Kool-Aid. Today, we’re dissecting Sam Altman’s “AI manifesto”—a magical journey where, apparently, AI will fix everything from climate change to your grandma's back pain. Superintelligence is “just a few thousand days away,” right? Sure, Sam, and my cat’s about to become a calculus tutor.

In this episode, I’ll break down the bold (and often bizarre) claims in Altman’s grand speech for the Intelligence Age. I’ll give you the real scoop on what’s realistic, what’s nonsense, and why some tech billionaires just can’t resist overselling. Think AI’s all-knowing, all-powerful future is just around the corner? Let’s see if we can spot the fairy dust.

Strap in, grab some popcorn, and get ready to see past the hype!
