Better Offline - Monologue: Jacob Coxon and the AI Safety Grift
About this episode
Ed Zitron discusses the AI safety grift and the dangers of AI in the wrong hands.
In this week's Better Offline monologue, Ed Zitron runs through the nonsensical, pro-AI lab scare campaign driven by former researcher Jacob Coxon, how the media keeps falling for AI safety grifts, and how dangerous AI is already in the wrong hands - those of Anthropic and OpenAI.
