I stumbled upon a gem last week: The Last Invention from Longview is a podcast series about the origins, development, risks and opportunities posed by AI. Starting with the Turing test in the 1950s, it goes on to tell the story of AI development, mentioning DeepBlue, Watson, AlphaGo, Deepmind, OpenAI and Anthropic. During the last week, I listened to the entire first season and can only recommend it: It’s thought-provoking, very well produced and just fascinating.
