We had a chance to speak with @gregk.co.uk of Blood Work about recent... legal happenings in the UK. Where we're not allowed to say things in specific terms. But you'll get the drift. www.patreon.com/trashfuture/...

Riley and Hussein are joined by Hesse Deni (subbing in for Nova this week) to look at the unravelling of “A.I. safety” as a largely posting based discipline. Let’s all update our priors together and gesture at the crux of the issue. Also, Riley brought the most Ohio item home from a wedding in same

Legal AI tech is a booming industry and apparently the surest way to market it is to convince lawyers that they will get to be the cool guy in “Suits." We're not making this up. www.patreon.com/trashfuture/...

Will Gluck has managed to make a movie that pleases no one but, despite its outward appearances, he's also made a film about how it’s better to wait for marriage and enjoy a quirky existence under…biofascism? We’re not exaggerating. www.patreon.com/trashfuture/...

A recent article claimed @doctorow.pluralistic.net theory of tech's continual worsening is actually fake, and that people actually love their phones and apps more than ever. Cory wasn't going to read it, but we got him on and let him respond. Let's just say there are some holes in the logic.

Why did a family of restaurateurs from the Reading area suddenly become critical to every phone sold in the UK? You might assume it's low-stakes corruption, but we have a different theory… www.patreon.com/trashfuture/...

Among the many questions raised, a principal one is: why does Andy Burnham have an IMDb page? Surely this is against common decency. We asked Libby and Charlotte from @whatsallthispod.bsky.social to help us understand. www.patreon.com/trashfuture/...

It turns out that Mark Zuckerberg has an escape hatch at Facebook headquarters that he can jump down in the event of anyone who doesn't get paid by Facebook making it into his office. These are the slings and arrows endured for simply trying to make the world worse: www.patreon.com/trashfuture/...
