What I Learned In 'How To Rule The World' Class

One way to deal with these stupid claims about AI is to start treating their claims that their AI is sapient and intelligent or AGI as real and start treating them as slavers and arresting them for it. Because that's what a company claiming ownership of an individual person is, and AGI is supposed to be definitionally a person.

thank you Nova for making me realize i've been mixing up Bloc Party and The Arcade Fire for years, despite coming of age in the indie heyday

“Paw logic” sounds like a company that makes escape rooms for dogs.

Bones of the New World - Goodwife Brennan and former Minuteman Booth solve murders most foul in the thirteen colonies

Farm ville rogue like nuzlocke would be a banger. With Balatro like scoring.

Also, not to be confused wuth Pheobe Cates, the hot lady from the Gremlins films.

Fun fact: Stanford actually has an official "How to rule the world" class called "Discover the Paths to Power".

Wait Zack Addy like from Bones is the AI agent?

Did you enjoy The End and the Death Riley?

@Nova I too am still obsessed with Silent Alarm in 2026. And I was a teenager when it first came out aka Unc

having my first experience listening to the pod in the actual UK. feels like making a pilgrimage

to make my own Blindsight comparison; all these people want to be scramblers so bad, just pure maximised efficiency no inner life

We had a French kid who took French for GCSE and got a C. He had no regrets.

No mention of Phoebe Cates while discussing Phoebe Gates. Shocking..

First in with a "yeah man the anarchy comparison IS reductive but whatever" type comment

I still think it's hilarious that not only did Phoebe Gates just make something that already exists in many different form, that thing also scammed its users in the exact same way that those other ones did. Just incredible

"God's free DMT hit" is gunna live rent free in my head, ty Nova

As someone with big googly eyes on my fridge i support this message

Kele has the same arc as Art Alexakis of Everclear. It feels a bit weird to cheer the healthy growth of a person while mourning the loss of the miserable soul that made their best music.

Can't forget phoe-bear

Terrible way to learn about Pigwig

Someone go down to the basement and let Mattie know I have reset the Gilet counter to 0️⃣

I mean this in the nicest way possible. Can we get Hussein a new microphone. The little high pitch whine drives me nuts. Great ep!

Gilet mentioned

"Moneyballs" is the name of Riley and Nova's new podcast on the Call Her Daddy network.

is riley aware that Zack Addy is a Bones character

Stanford = dark academia but somehow more cringe

The spectacle of the CEO of Facebook, the poster child for rentier capitalism squatting in its online advertising duopoly along with Google, announcing, “let a thousand start-ups bloom!” with its AI initiative, is pure black comedy

Please link the ai trailer

Love these exactly one hour long eps

oh, zaddy

That is swatting in the same way that Al Pacino swatted Robert De Niro in Heat while he was robbing the bank

41:54 WRT "the prosperity of the future can be shared", I feel obliged to ask why we can't share our prosperity today. Why it seems to concentrate in the hands of a few dipshits.

All these how to rule the world courses in schools. But no courses on how to do your taxes, how to change a tire...
