A Flood of A.I. Slop + Searching for Satoshi + the Hot Mess Express Returns
Manage episode 444642654 series 2792038
This week, in the wake of recent natural disasters, we dig into the rise of A.I.-generated slop that’s polluting the internet and disrupting rescue efforts. Then we talk with the investigative filmmaker Cullen Hoback about his new documentary on the history of Bitcoin and about why, after so many others have failed, he thinks he has found the real Satoshi Nakamoto. And finally, we hear the train whistle approaching, and that can only mean one thing: It’s once again time to board the Hot Mess Express.
Guest:
- Cullen Hoback, Documentary filmmaker
Additional Reading:
- Another Hurdle in Recovery From Helene: Misinformation Is Getting in the Way
- Bitcoin Documentary ‘Money Electric’ Reopens Search for Satoshi Nakamoto
- U.S. Weighs Forcing Google to Break Off Parts of the Company
