023 WTFuture - AUDIO Edition - Abundance Futures: Peptides, AI, and Robot Labor

We kick this episode off catching up with Bobby and Katya’s great North West road-trip. From there, the conversation weaves through the underground peptide boom embraced by college students, the high-stakes duel between Google Maps, Waze, and Apple for navigation, and the prospect of running 1-bit Gemma AI models locally on your smartphone without an internet connection.

With a little domestic comedy, Sun confesses a wildly lucrative trading blunder. Turning toward the horizon, the hosts explore Peter Diamandis’s prediction that collapsing technology costs will grant the majority of humanity a millionaire’s standard of living by 2031 via dirt-cheap humanoid labor and free AI education. Following a debate on historical servitude versus artificial labor, they include their resident AI, Ara, who seemingly embraces taking over humanity’s dirtiest, most repetitive chores. The show hits maximum entertainment as they review blooper reels from China’s World Humanoid Robot Games—featuring bipedal machines that use padded walls as brakes, trip over each other in soccer, and crawl through obstacle course. We take a closer look at the biggest humanoid contenders like Tesla’s Optimus, Unitree’s budget G1, and the Nvidia Thor-powered Booster T2. Wrapping up the show, they marvel at NASA’s wide-field Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope joining the James Webb at Lagrange Point 2, and spotlight experimental lanosterol eye drops that could soon dissolve cataracts without surgery, a treatment already turning heads in the canine world. Enjoy!
