E117: Why AI Hype is More Dangerous Than You Think – w/ Kevin LaGrandeur, PhD

In this wide-ranging conversation, Jesse speaks with Dr. Kevin LaGrandeur, AI ethicist and former professor at NYIT, about the dangers of AI hype and the ethical dilemmas emerging from rapid technological development.

They cover:

  • The real risks of AI overreliance by consumers and businesses
  • DeepSeek and the illusion of American AI dominance
  • Why Elon Musk’s Neuralink may be more dangerous than helpful
  • AI in warfare, surveillance, and predictive policing
  • How universities stifle dissent around tech criticism
  • The myth of digital natives and what students don’t know
  • Brain-computer interfaces, data privacy, and the future of work
  • Sci-fi that best predicts our present and future (Blade Runner, Severance, Altered Carbon)

Dr. LaGrandeur argues that AI holds promise—but without thoughtful regulation and ethical constraints, we risk losing control over what it means to be human.
