AI Amnesty Is Warped Speed 2.0 | 12/9/25
Description
Generative AI and its accompanying data-center slop agenda are being completely fueled by the Trump administration. This is Warped Speed 2.0, where government shields a failed and dangerous endeavor from all market accountability. We’re joined today by cognitive scientist Gary Marcus, who is one of the foremost AI experts and an early critic of the “scaling” generative AI model. In a wide-ranging discussion, he explains how the hallucination problem endemic to this model was so easy to predict and why the tech companies are now choking on their own sophistry. We also delve into the unsustainable economic model and how the "but China" argument is a straw man. Not only is this model failing to enhance the human experience, but Marcus believes its modus operandi of disseminating “authoritative BS” is destroying the internet and rotting the brains of youngsters.
