Technology reported Edward Ongweso Jr. joins Jordan for a great discussion on Ed’s new piece in The Nation about Silicon Valley’s quest to create an AI god and control humanity. We explore the key figures pushing this concept, their motives, whether it’s even possible and whether the singularity is near.
Before that, we talk about Twitter’s rebrand to “X” and Elon Musk’s claims it will soon become “the everything app” and control half of the global financial system. Beyond this very likely being yet another PR ploy, we examine what’s behind this transition and what his actual goal is with this effort.
