15:11Wolfram RavenwolfBut if AI is widespread and available to everybody, on the same terms, then it is much more that is the only safety we have, safety in numbers in a way. If you If you have strong AI to protect you, otherwise only the elites elites will have AI that they already have the super intelligence, they have the lawyers, the doctors, they have all of this because they have the money.
14:52Wolfram Ravenwolfi mean ai won't be over i have talked to protesters about this in front front of ai engineer for instance the pause ai guys pause ai i told them what do you think will happen if if they they pause ai is just the genie is out of the bottle the technology is too important too powerful to just pause so it's not about pausing ai or ai being over it's about access who will have access to ai so if the pause movement wins it just goes underground some secret labs will be doing it for the governments only and only the rich and powerful will profit from this.
14:18Alex Volkovi just go Wolfram just go
14:16Guestyou want us to just start going or what
14:14Alex Volkovno
14:13Alex Volkovbreaking oh yeah he's bringing breaking news that's great great and then I have have been trying to get Max for a while Max KanatAlexander who is now going viral with his talk from AI Engineer New York is going to come here Max is a principal engineer at Capital One has been at Google for a long long time been in charge of code quality and a bunch of other stuff Max is a fascinating dude to talk to and I'm very very excited for that conversation please stick around for for that as we as we kind of like progress to the show let's start with highlights I think here we go let's start with highlights of the week what was the most interesting stuff but also I will say we are not a political show we try to not touch politics too much much I feel like this week week it is inevitable because the politics politics touch us the changes the updates the midterm elections in the the United States if you haven't if you've been living under a rock they have just concluded concluded with a few things things that are important for AI so we definitely should at least mention this and I think I'll start this with a prompt to all of you and then see how we go from there I've seen Nisten is already ready for the hot takes is AI over is it all over are we done let's start with that prompt
12:50Guestbreaking news on the show
12:49Alex Volkovwith Ricursion sorry Ricursion Ricursion not to be confused with Ricursion uh so there's a few confusing labs but still we will welcome any any open source open weights labs to to the arena to try and compete so there's quite a few stuff from that perspective um but we also have two interviews today one is a long time fan of the show friend of the show uh John Davis Wolfram thank you for bringing it up John has cooked something super cool it's going to be here to tell us about this in about an hour or so and then
12:16Alex Volkovi think that uh very exciting week but not a huge week in terms of releases let's just like open this up up right like we don't have huge new models to talk about this week uh at least not yet i always like like looking at Peter's face whether or not he's trying to smile coyly or not whether or not something is coming but um not not a huge amount of releases there is quite a lot of open source stuff that we should talk about Kimi finally dropped their weights Kimiimi 3.1 um we have a few others from uh from a few labs so definitely something to to talk about there uh another reflection not to be confused with
11:34Guestbut yeah many many things are happening so yeah exciting week as always
11:27GuestYeah
11:26GuestYeah, I'm good. I've got lots of travel so I'm trying to keep up with other stuff you know the important stuff that we all care about

10:59GuestIt's going to be very interesting to talk with my friend from Germany and my friend that lives in London about the stuff stuff that's happening in the US and whether or not it took over your timelines as much much as it did mine. But also we have a bunch of AI stuff specifically in the cold open open the Astra reading Qwen weights directly I think that that's something for us to definitely chat about that's been quite crazy but meanwhile I'll just say hi Wolfram welcome Peter welcome how are you guys how are you guys
10:30GuestI'm an AI evangelist with CoreWeave. As you can hear, a little bit getting over some stuff, but we're going to get through this because we have we had quite a week. I don't know if only AI is related this week. There's a few other news happening on the timelines.
