Talking Sense About Trump Assasination Attempt, The DA's GNU Troubles, Elon Musk VS OpenAI And OPEC
Gabriel Makin
-1h 11mIn this episode, the panel tries to understand the record-breaking third assassination attempt against President Trump. They examine how the constant raising of the temperature and slander by the media, celebrities and politicians have created an enabling environment for deranged people to feel as though they are doing something heroic in trying to kill Trump. After this, the panel turn to some market news as they unpack the case of Elon Musk Vs Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI. From there the panel discuss whether an AI bubble exists and what may cause it to burst. After that, the panel turns its attention to the history of OPEC and the decision by the UAE to leave that institution. They demonstrate that this marks a seismic shift in the balance of power of the global energy system, with a turn away from dominance by the gulf states, towards the United States. The conversation ends with a discussion about the DA's continued failings inside of the GNU. From a dodgy education tender, John Steenhuisen being reprimanded by the courts again, to an AI policy written by hallucinating AI, the frequency of DA failure in government seems to have increased. The panel examines why this is the case and what the DA may do to actually leverage the position in which that party finds itself.
