Will AI Kill Us All? Jev Says: 87%
Notas del episodio
This week, Robbie and Adam sip on Courage & Conviction American Single Malt and dive into the AI arms race, deterministic models versus word vomit machines, and whether Jev is the future of intelligent software or just another hype cycle waiting to crash. They dig into the developer grind, stealing time from sleep, the AI slow down debate, Jev as the deterministic probability only AI, real time Jev in Doom and Smash Bros, intelligent gates that bypass LLM slop, Jev's three core ideas, trading bots running 100 times faster, smoking whiskey with pear wood, the paperclip problem and how AI might kill us, why Adam's all in on Astra, model degradation and thinking levels, context windows as seasoned pans, Delta and Herder as multiplayer agent tools, corporate AI tooling and the native harness advantage, Ocarina of Time remake versus digital ownership nightmares, and an arrow through the living room window because Adam sat down to play banjo instead of teaching the eighth kid how to use a compound bow.
