They discuss the origins of The Bulwark, the bewildering psychology of Trump's base, the new era of authenticity, memory-holing January 6th, how media broke politics, why Kamala Harris should never run again, the difference between America First and MAGA, potential 2028 Democratic candidates, and other topics.

(Finite) Numbers So Large They'd Destroy You

It starts as a friendly challenge: who can name the biggest number? The only rule? Infinity doesn’t count. What follows is a journey through the biggest finite numbers ever imagined. From Archimedes’ grains of sand to Graham’s Number, a sequence so vast it stretches the limits of human comprehension, Professor Hannah Fry and Michael Stevens tumble through this strange landscape of scale, tracing how mathematicians have pushed counting to its absolute edge. But beyond vast calculations, perhaps this is less about numbers and more about us. Why do humans push at the limits of finitude at all? How do we represent the biggest numbers in existence? Why can’t our brains feel the difference between a million, a billion, and a trillion? And when do big numbers affect our ability to empathise with others? ------------------- For more information about Cancer Research UK, their research, breakthroughs and how you can support them, visit ⁠⁠https://cancerresearchuk.org/restisscience⁠⁠ Cancer Research UK is a registered charity in England and Wales (1089464), Scotland (SC041666), the Isle of Man (1103) and Jersey (247).

Mitä on tekoälyn takana?

Nykyisen teknologisen kehityksen taustalta löytyy datakeskuksia, energiaa, tehokkaita mikrosiruja ja maametalleja. Kuluttajille näkyvien tekoälysovellusten ja internetin toiminnan mahdollistaa fyysinen infrastruktuuri, johon liittyy geopolitiikka ja valtavat hiilidioksidipäästöt. Minkälaiselle teknologiselle kehitykselle, keskinäisriippuvuuksille ja resurssien käytölle digitaalinen maailma perustuu? Onko väliä, missä datakeskukset sijaitsevat ja mikrosirut valmistetaan? Millaista on suurvaltojen digitaalinen kilpailu ja mihin se voi johtaa? Keskustelemassa tietojenkäsittelytieteen professori Jussi Kangasharju, teknologiapolitiikan professori Vili Lehdonvirta ja epäorgaanisen materiaalikemian professori Mikko Ritala. Juontajana on Anna-Sofia Berner. GRAFIIKAT: 1. Pilvipalveluiden infrastruktuureja kartalla: https://www.helsinki.fi/assets/drupal/media-image/Tiedekulma_mita_on_tekoalyn_takana.png 2.

The Evolution Of The Butthole

Topologically speaking, a human is just a donut with seven holes. It sounds like a joke, but it is a fundamental biological reality. Professor Hannah Fry and Michael Stevens explore the strange geometry of the human body, tracing how we evolved from simple tubes into complex toruses. They investigate the "design flaw" at the boundary of our existence, the fragile transition where skin meets internal lining, and ask why nature built us with so many vulnerabilities to the outside world.But before mapping our topology, Michael and Hannah tackle the instability of knowledge itself. From the suggestion our current physics is almost certainly wrong, to the edges of logic where mathematics fundamentally breaks down. Plus, they unpack the hidden psychology of symmetry: why is the human brain so obsessed with centering pictures, and what does it tell us about how we order our reality?-------------------For more information about Cancer Research UK, their research, breakthroughs and how you can support them, visit ⁠⁠https://cancerresearchuk.org/restisscience⁠⁠Cancer Research UK is a registered charity in England and Wales (1089464), Scotland (SC041666), the Isle of Man (1103) and Jersey (247).

Is Epstein Alive? The 313th Evolutionary Lens with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying

On this, our 313th Evolutionary Lens livestream, we discuss the Orwellian landscape(s) we find ourselves in, beginning with a reading from 1984. Minneapolis has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize; a male school shooter in a dress was referred to as female in several media outlets; and Wikipedia is lauded for its neutrality by (the science journal) Nature, with an example that demonstrates a lack of neutrality at either place. Orwell modernizes Ecclesiastes, then: Epstein: QAnon, Massacre of the Innocents, giant vats of sulfuric acid, jerky, kompromat, and oh by the way, is he still alive? Bret thinks so. ***** Our sponsors: SaunaSpace: deep radiant heat from red and infrared incandescence—detox and decrease pain, reverse screen fatigue and improve your mood http://Sauna.Space/DarkHorse for 10% off sitewide.

343 | Tom Griffiths on The Laws of Thought

For all that human beings spend a lot of their time thinking, it's far from obvious what that process actually entails. Part of it amounts to classical logical reasoning. But an even bigger part involves reasoning with probability and uncertainty. And some of it is governed by unavoidable limitations on time and accuracy. Psychologist and computer scientist Tom Griffiths suggests that we have thought about it enough to feel that we have come to understand some general principles, which he explains in his new book The Laws of Thought: The Quest for a Mathematical Theory of Mind.

What bots talk about when they think humans aren’t listening

In late January a new social media site took a certain corner of the internet by storm. Moltbook was conceived as a space where AI assistants could let off steam, chat and compare notes on their bosses, but it quickly became the focus of breathless claims that the singularity had arrived as the bots started badmouthing their humans and plotting an uprising. So what’s the truth about Moltbook? Madeleine Finlay hears from Aisha Down about what it tells us about AI, and about us.. Help support our independent journalism at theguardian.com/sciencepod
