Bret and Heather 168th DarkHorse Podcast Livestream: Orwell 2.0
In this 168th in a series of live discussions with Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying (both PhDs in Biology), we discuss the state of the world through an evolutionary lens.
This week we discuss twitter mobs, and Thomas Sowell’s Intellectuals and Society, with example after example of how the media filters reality and creates fiction while burying reality: from famine to homelessness, gun control to unemployment. We also discuss science, a field—like journalism—that is supposed to be working in pursuit of truth. Then we return to the question of AI, and whether two pieces out this week that suggest a moratorium, or something stronger, are the right approach. Finally: Do male armadillos, like all the rest of mammals who have been studied, get erections during REM sleep?
