   BT Clip: Can We Escape The simulation? (Roman Yampolskiy)

   Are we living in a simulation? Dr. Roman Yampolskiy explains how scientists run experiments inside simulations, why boxing AI may not hold, and what it would mean if AI breaks out of its safe environment, or if humanity escapes its own.

   MIT Professor & AI Doomer Admits He Was WRONG (Ramesh Raskar)

   What happens when millions of people hand their lives to AI agents, and nobody has built the rules of the road? This episode is brought to you by AgelessRx, where aging becomes a puzzle that can be solved. The mission is to help you live longer and healthier by adding more life to your years through science-backed solutions and personalized care. Learn more at agelessrx.com/beyond-tomorrow (http://agelessrx.com/beyond-tomorrow). MIT Media Lab professor Ramesh Raskar argues the real danger isn't the AI engine, it's agents with no governance. His case: decentralize AI so billions of people run their own agents, and build the licences, inspections and audit trails agents need, instead of trusting a few labs to make the engine safe. His P(doom) has fallen from 90% to under 10%. The conversation covers what an AI agent actually is, personal agents like Dot, Muse, Instinct and CC, the DRIVE framework for gradually trusting an agent, why there's no such thing as "zero-shot AGI," the OpenAI and Hugging Face incident, prompt injection, and the shift from an attention economy to an intention economy. One question runs through it all: can we get the benefits of AI agents without handing control to a handful of companies, or to the agents themselves? Ramesh's answer: don't just build better engines, build the roads, the rules and the governance. Key Takeaways An agent is an LLM in a loop with tools: the LLM is the engine, the agent is the car, the internet is the road. Build trust with DRIVE (Discover, Request, Instruct, Venture, Execute), and start with reversible tasks, no credit cards. Decentralized agents shrink the blast radius, which is why Ramesh's P(doom) has dropped sharply. Cost is the bottleneck: running an agent per user costs far more than serving a social media user, so expect revenue-share deals. Prompt injection is the top risk because LLMs can't separate commands from content. Agents need licences, inspection stickers and audit trails. About Ramesh Raskar Ramesh Raskar is a professor at the MIT Media Lab, where he works on decentralized AI and the Internet of Agents. His research focuses on how personal AI agents can be built so power stays distributed instead of concentrated in a few companies. ⏱ Timestamps 00:00  Intro 00:00 Why AI Is Moving So Fast: The Intelligence Economy 01:27 What Is an AI Agent, Really? 04:00 Ramesh's P(Doom) Update 05:46 Is Decentralized AI Safer Than Centralized AI? 09:54 How to Use Personal AI Agents (Dot, Muse, Instinct) 13:35 Will AI Agents Become the New Super App? 17:44 The Agentic Web Explained 20:14 Can Personal Superintelligence Exist? 25:17 A Model That Learns How to Learn Everything 29:19 AI Literacy: What to Do If You're Not Using AI 31:16 From OpenClaw to Muse 36:25 It's Not About Bigger Models, It's About Better Agents 37:51 Road Safety Rules for AI Agents 42:58 What a Safe Agentic World Looks Like 44:23 Surfing the Web With AI Agents 48:44 Voice, Screens or Taps?

   BT Clip: Scientist Exposes The Dangers of AI Super Intelligence (Roman Yampolskiy)

   AI safety researcher Roman Yampolskiy breaks down his P(doom) estimate and why he believes artificial superintelligence could be a death sentence for humanity if development keeps moving this fast. His warning isn't anti-AI — it's a case for keeping AI as a tool we control, not a replacement for human judgment.

Published 23 Oct 2025 · Transcript excerpt

[…] Biggest thing that I emphasize is becoming aware of your health status. So... It's important to be aware of, okay, where do you sit at in terms of the general population? And health has a big subjective component. You feel if you're healthy and you feel if you're unhealthy and sick. But health is also something you can quantify. You can measure your blood markers. You can measure other biomarkers. You can measure even your mood if you're interested in that kind of thing. So you can put a number on it as well and you can scale it. So just becoming aware of what are what does your blood markers say about your health and what other biomarkers you can look at to see. […]
