About this episode

A.M. Edition for Oct. 8. Norway’s government is considering a nationwide ban on the use of AI smartglasses in certain public or sensitive areas over privacy concerns. We speak to the minister behind the push about how the lessons of social media are motivating this world-first proposal. Plus, AI giants embrace blockbuster debt deals to fund their voracious appetite for chips. And energy prices rise as the Houthis ramp up attacks on Saudi Arabia and Hurricane Isaias takes aim at the Gulf Coast. Luke Vargas hosts.
