020 WTFuture - AUDIO Edition - Sovereign Minds, Helium Worlds, Augmented Brains

In this week’s chat, we completely geeked out over the future of our “augmented brains” and the rise of local AI, like the mind-blowing new Bonsai tech that squeezes a massive 27-billion parameter model right onto an iPhone. It is a total game-changer because it acts as a private, “sovereign” AI companion that does not need the cloud, saves energy, and ensures nobody steals your ideas. We also had a great time joking about the “dead internet” theory now that bot traffic has surged 7,800%. But don’t worry, human creativity is still king—especially when we use AI as a collaborator to create hilarious, custom animations of floppy disks barfing green data goo, complete with gassy liquid sound fx!

Looking to the stars, we were absolutely captivated by SpaceX’s Starship landing beautifully in the Indian Ocean and their wild plans to launch giant AI compute satellites to build an off-planet internet. We also discussed the hilarious twist of a 1972 Soviet Venus probe, Cosmos 482, finally crash-landing back on Earth after a 53-year detour in orbit. To top it all off, astronomers just found LHS1140B, a rocky exoplanet 48 light-years away that has a faint stream of helium, marking the first time we’ve detected an atmosphere on a habitable-zone rocky world! It’s a beautifully abundant, high-tech future ahead of us, and as we pack our bags for the Laurentian Mountains, we can’t wait to see what wildly optimistic paradigm shifts happen next. Enjoy!
