Radar – by nexxworks: Never Normal Heroes – 🧠 Intelligence Native: Peter Hinssen and Casey Newton on AI, Society, and the Razor's Edge of Optimism
Shownotes
What happens when a CEO fires 4,000 people to become "intelligence native" — and the stock jumps 17%?
Peter Hinssen sits down with tech journalist Casey Newton — founder of Platformer, co-host of Hard Fork, and one of Silicon Valley's sharpest observers — for an unfiltered conversation about the AI revolution from the front row, and what it really means for boardrooms, jobs, and society as the safety guardrails come off.
They cover: 🔹 Why "intelligence native" is the only boardroom conversation that matters 🔹 Anthropic's two stands against the Pentagon — autonomous weapons and the Mythos model 🔹 Engels' Pause and whether AI will repeat the Industrial Revolution's wage trap 🔹 NIMBY-ism as the public's last lever against data centers 🔹 Why Casey calls himself "barely an optimist" — and still makes the case for hope
If you lead a business, build with AI, or want to understand the next decade — this one's non-negotiable.
