  • Resumen

  • Nonsense desperately tries to make sense of today’s business, technology, and (sometimes) entertainment headlines. Not too serious and occasionally funny, join technologist cj little and leggy blonde Jeff Parker for their unique take on the past week. While we can’t promise you’ll laugh every week, we can promise you’ll learn something new (and maybe even interesting) New episodes drop every Thursday morning (UTC). Produced by an orangutan; art thanks to artificial intelligence. https://nonsense.productions Twitter: @nnsnspdcst Instagram: @nnsnspdcst Gmail: nnsnspdcst@gmail.com

    (42:16) Jeff’s Recommendation: The Stones & Twenty Feet From Stardom


    No one, not even you dear listener, deserves a Nonsense-free August. So we airlifted Jeff out of the South Pacific and woke up cj by poking him with a stick so that we could bring you this one, stellar episode this month.

    We get asked all the time: is Google the new Standard Oil or just a picked-on tech giant? Join us as we dive into the world of antitrust law and explore whether Google's dominance is a threat to competition or a reward for innovation. We'll uncover the potential impact on you and your digital life, and get cj incredibly worked up over some of the shitty Q&A products still on the market.

    Get ready to question everything you know about search.

Well, advances in processing power, storage, and battery technology virtually ensure that this will be possible very soon. This concept has been postulated by many, and several companies are currently working on products to enable this. Feed this memory into your personal artificial intelligence and you have something extremely interesting, powerful, and concerning. In this episode, the guys share their thoughts on if they’d even want an everlasting memory. Fortunately, there are about 60 people on the planet who have had this ability naturally for decades, so we might have something to learn from them. But before that: Alphabet invests another cool $5 billion in Waymo; Amazon’s got a paid Alexa coming; and CrowdStrike blames test software for crashing the Internet along with 8.5 million computers.

    (43:33) Jeff’s Recommendation: Helder Guimarães’ The Hope Theory


    Continuing with our 2024 Summer of Fun here at Nonsense, we spend most of this episode discussing the future of AI. Starting with the current push to reach Artificial General Intelligence, but more interestingly, diving into what comes after these AGI’s.

    Thanks to the compounding growth of technology, fueled by concepts such as Moore’s Law, we postulate that once we achieve an AGI, humanity will, very soon thereafter, achieve Artificial Super Intelligence. This is fascinating, and (very) likely coming (very) soon. The future is an amazing place.
