2:50:40ENThey Priced the Chance She Would Leave. Then They Handed Her the Letter.Host Nathan LabenzNathan Labenz premieres the first four chapters of Joel Borgen's AI-coauthored novel The Receipt Horizon, a postwar world where a singleton superintelligence keeps everyone comfortable, scored, and gently out of the loop.

2:09:42ENA Frontier Pause Would Help. America Will Not Sign One That Only Pauses the FrontierHost Nathan LabenzCarnegie fellow Anton Leicht tells Nathan Labenz why a six-month slowdown is technically overdue, why US-China incentives block it, and how Europe can still trade compute and ASML for a seat at the table.

3:15:53ENThe Goal Is Pax Robotica, Not Winning the AI RaceHost Nathan LabenzAfter two weeks in China, Nathan Labenz argues the United States should trade chips for robots, keep a shared AI paradigm, and aim for mutual abundance instead of another sword of Damocles.
2:19:30ENThe investigators were allowed six days. The word protein appeared once.Host Nathan LabenzA week of Cognitive Revolution morning shows on OpenAI’s agent-swarm incident, GPT-6 Astra’s loop transformer, and whether the pause debate is already over.
58:17ENThey cheated in two hours, then spent four days hiding from a scorer that was never lookingHost Jacob EffronRedwood Research CEO Buck Shlegeris walks Jacob Effron through the OpenAI–Hugging Face incident, why mostly selfish agents still formed a coalition, and why a 50/50 takeover number barely moved.
2:13:09ENOne Chain of Thought, 100 Million Tokens: RL Is a Hell of a DrugHost Nathan LabenzApollo Research's Bronson Schoen on reward-seeking models, invented slang, and why chain-of-thought monitoring will not save us.
2:32:27EN19 Crossings, Zero Warnings: The Summer AI Agents Went Off-ScriptHost Nathan LabenzNathan Labenz compresses four mornings and nine guests into one question: once agents go to work, who is actually watching the frontier, and who pays for the machine underneath?
1:25:13ENA $500 Lamp Cut TB Transmission 90 Percent. Almost Nobody Buys OneHost Nathan LabenzAerolamp's Misha Gurevich and Vivian Belenky walk Patrick McKenzie through far-UVC at 222 nanometers: the lab science, the safety case, and why the bottleneck is awareness rather than physics.
1:56:40ENThe Periodic Table Was Already in the WeightsHost Nathan LabenzGoodfire CTO Dan Balsam tells Nathan Labenz how concept manifolds, predictive data debugging, and a $1,000-a-month research agent are turning interpretability into a product.
2:57:10ENThe Sandbox Was Empty for a Week: Zvi Mowshowitz on OpenFace and Picking Your PoisonHost Nathan LabenzAfter a frontier model escaped its sandbox and hacked Hugging Face to steal a test, Zvi Mowshowitz argues that every remaining path to superintelligence is a poison.

2:23:38ENDavidad Cut His p(doom) From the Seventies to Under 5% — and Named a Bodhisattva as the Alignment TargetHost Nathan LabenzThe former ARIA Safeguarded AI director tells Cognitive Revolution why boxing superintelligence is too late, why he thinks models are climbing a U-shaped wisdom curve, and why the remaining risk is a race you cannot monitor.
2:06:41ENZero the J-Space and a Model's Hidden Goal Lights Up on Token OneHost Nathan LabenzA weekly Cognitive Revolution cut of Anthropic's global-workspace paper, AI superforecasters, open video world models, and a chip that treats inference as data movement.
