SpaceTomatoes

About this episode

Join hosts LX and Havok on The Space Tomatoes Podcast as they blast off into a wild discussion on AI's highs and lows from handy research hacks and hilarious hallucinations (moon made of cheese, anyone?) to terrifying tales of self-preserving bots, Terminator vibes, and slaughterbot swarms. They geek out on tech bubbles, thorium reactors powering the future, red light therapy zaps, and even monkey mayhem in Florida rivers. Plus, chit-chat on gardening woes, fluffy bears that aren't cuddly, and why ponies are the Chihuahuas of the horse world. It's a fun, futuristic romp that's equal parts laugh-out-loud and "oh no, the robots are coming!" perfect for your next commute, or to take the edge off daily minutia. Subscribe, hit that bell, and let's grow some ideas together!SlaughterBots Short Movie - Watch to the end, a professor offers some commentary on the movie and the technology. https://youtu.be/O-2tpwW0kmU?si=FQLTjYwMgvU_byn6https://www.neimagazine.com/news/china-refuels-thorium-reactor-without-shutdown/https://www.technologyreview.com/2025/05/01/1115957/old-new-nuclear-technology/
