About this episode

"The end of mankind wouldn't even be biological in such an instance. It would be neurological."

~ Copernican

What if AI's biggest flaw - training on its own recycled data - isn't just a tech glitch, but a universal law unraveling societies, economies, and even mouse utopias?

Dive into this mind-bending theory that ties neural networks to human decadence, explores why socialism collapses like a bad map, and questions if superintelligence is doomed to diminishing returns - could this be the hidden force behind our cultural breakdown?
