    The Stochastic Parrot & The Human Mind: Are We the Same?

    We’re joined by ⁠Ramsay,⁠ founder and CEO of ⁠Mission Control⁠, a leading AI Safety company building trust infrastructure for AI systems where failure is not an option. With a career spanning brain architecture, behavioral engineering, theoretical chemistry, and digital therapeutics, Ramsay has been at the forefront of where technology, innovation, and human flourishing intersect. Now, he and his team are accelerating AI Safety to ensure that synthetic intelligence—humanity’s greatest invention—remains a force for good. In this episode, we dive deep into the nature of intelligence—both artificial and human. The term stochastic parrot—coined by Emily M. Bender, Timnit Gebru, Angelina McMillan-Major, and Margaret Mitchell in their 2021 paper, On the Dangers of Stochastic Parrots—describes large language models (LLMs) that generate language without true understanding, merely predicting words based on probability. But what if humans aren’t so different? Ramsay brings a provocative perspective: maybe our own cognition is just a more advanced version of predictive pattern-matching. Together, we explore the future of Responsible AI, the ethical boundaries of intelligent machines, and what the accelerating pace of AI means for the workforce. Will automation redefine the nature of work itself? What safeguards are needed to ensure AI benefits society? And in a world where machines mimic human cognition, what does it truly mean to be intelligent? Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion at the frontier of AI, ethics and the future of work.

    Surveillance Capitalism: Myth or Reality?

    Is surveillance capitalism as dangerous as its critics claim, or have we overstated its risks? In this episode, we dive into Peter Königs' controversial defense of surveillance capitalism, challenging the dominant narrative that Big Tech is eroding privacy, manipulating politics and fueling government surveillance. We explore:🔹 The true impact of targeted advertising – is it really manipulating us?🔹 The role of social media in politics – filter bubbles, misinformation, and polarisation.🔹 The mental health debate – does social media really "rewire" our brains?🔹 The government surveillance paradox – are Big Tech companies enablers or privacy defenders? Join us as we debunk myths, analyse real-world data, and discuss the ethics of digital capitalism in an era dominated by Google, Facebook and Twitter/X.

    The Future of AI Regulation

    As the UK’s Labour government takes the reins, the future of AI regulation hangs in the balance. Will they align with the EU’s AI Act, follow the US’s light-touch approach, or carve out their own path? And with growing pressure from a potential second Trump administration, how much independence can the UK maintain? In this episode, we break down Labour’s AI strategy, the implications of Anthropic’s recent contract to boost UK government efficiency, and whether AI policy will be driven by ethics or economic pressure. Is meaningful regulation even possible—or will the UK cave to industry and international influence? Tune in as we explore the politics, power plays, and big tech lobbying shaping the future of AI regulation..
