  • AGI Is a Conspiracy Theory (E347)
    Have you been having fun with the newest slate of AI tools? Have you been doing research with GPT-5? Coding your projects with Claude? Turning pictures of your friends into cartoon characters from the Fairly Odd Parents using the image editing tool Nano Banana? Are you impressed with what they can do? Well guess what? You’re only impressed with them because you’re basically a naive child. You’re like a little child with an etch a sketch who is amazed that they can make crude images by turning the knobs, oblivious to greater possibilities. At least, that’s the impression you get when listening to tech leaders, philosophers, and even governments. According to them, soon the most impressive of AI tools will look as cheap and primitive as Netflix’s recommendation algorithm in 2007. Soon the world will have to reckon with the power of Artificial General Intelligence, or “AGI.” What is AGI? Definitions vary. When will it come? Perhaps months. Perhaps years. Perhaps decades. But definitely soon enough for you to worry about. What will it mean for humanity once it's here? Perhaps a techno utopia. Perhaps extinction. No one is sure. But what they are sure of is that AGI is definitely coming and it’s definitely going to be a big deal. A mystical event. A turning point in history, after which nothing will ever be the same. However, some are more skeptical, like our guest today Will Douglas Heaven. Will has a PhD in Computer Science from Imperial College London and is the senior editor for AI at MIT Technology review. He recently published an article, based on his conversations with AI researchers, which provocatively calls AGI “the most consequential conspiracy theory of our time.” Jake and Travis chat with Will about the conspiracy theory-like talk from the AI industry, whether AGI is just “vibes and snake oil,” and how to distinguish between tech breakthroughs and Silicon Valley hyperbole.

  • Truly Tradly Deeply Episode 1: Introduction — “All I Think About Is Buying Cows”
    The first episode of Annie Kelly's 6-part podcast miniseries Truly Tradly Deeply. Cursed Media subscribers have access to the first two episodes right now, plus each new episode as they are released weekly. https://www.cursedmedia.net/ This series immerses you in the online world of "tradwives" through social media feeds, videos, and podcasts, so we can understand both its genuine appeal and its real‑world consequences. In our kickoff episode to Truly Tradly Deeply, Annie Kelly and Megan Kelly dive into the glossy, algorithm‑friendly world of “tradwives.” Why has it exploded from fringe subculture to mainstream lifestyle brand? We open with the story of the rise and unmasking of “Patriarchy Hannah,” a Twitter persona built on radical submission, to ask what, exactly, counts as a tradwife and why the aesthetics of “ancestral” femininity are so powerful right now. What’s inside * How tradwife content differs from stay‑at‑home‑mom content * A history tour: from anti‑suffrage campaigns (including the famous Swiss “No to women’s voting rights” poster) to Phyllis Schlafly, and the slogan “feminine, not feminist.” * Why “girlboss” neoliberal feminism and trad messaging can sound weirdly alike. Both lean on ideas of personal choice while dodging structural inequality. * Two audiences, two internets: the soothing homemaker feed aimed at women vs. the spiky, sexualized “Red Pill Tradwife” content built for men. * The political stakes: how hyper‑feminine imagery is being weaponized by the far right, from European “remigration” messaging to U.S. campus politics, and why women are increasingly central to that project.

  • The Tech Billionaire Doomsday Preachers (E346)
    Why do tech oligarchs keep proclaiming that the end is nigh? From Elon Musk warning of the civilizational-level threat of the “woke mind virus,” to Marc Andreessen declaring that “any deceleration of AI will cost lives,” to Peter Thiel’s fixation with the Antichrist, billionaires are insistent that the stakes of their ventures are nothing less than apocalyptic. To better understand the paranoia of Silicon Valley overlords, Travis, Jake, and Julian are joined by Chris Marquis, Sinyi Professor of Chinese Management at the University of Cambridge and author of the book The Profiteers: How Business Privatizes Profits and Socializes Costs.

  • The White Hat-Approved Healing Computer Monitor Controversy (Premium E310) Sample
    This week, Jake and Travis sit down with journalist Will Sommer to unpack his investigation into the New Age wellness empire selling stacks of glowing TV monitors as a cure‑all. Jason Shurka, the brains behind the multi-million dollar operation, used the funds to bankroll a brand new streaming platform, Unifyd TV, whose offerings include documentaries made by QAnon promoters. According to the promoters of this quack cure, their work is approved by a secret society of powerful entities who are dedicated to elevating humankind called “The Light Systems” cabal or “TLS.” One member of The Light Systems, a figure called “Ray,” is regularly filmed while wearing a face-concealing hoodie and gloves in order to preserve his anonymity in interviews with Shurka available on Unifyd TV. It’s a lot. Just listen to the episode.
