Update: 2025-09-18
Description
Nate Silver writes Silver Bulletin and is the author of On the Edge: The Art of Risking Everything, now in paperback with a new foreword.
In today’s conversation, we discuss…
- Honesty, reputation, and paying the bills with writing,
- Impact scenarios for the AI future, including how AI could impact elections and political decision-making,
- The emerging synergy between prediction markets and journalism, and how Nate would build a team of professional Polymarket traders,
- How to build a legacy, and strategies for balancing long-form and short-form projects,
- Nate’s hypothetical plan to reform US institutions, and how that compares with real-world prospects for creating political change over the long term.
