Nobody Asked For Dragons

Brian and Troy map the whole cast: who's the wizard, who's the arms dealer, who's the schoolyard bully, and who gets stuck playing the citizens of King's Landing who never asked for dragons. Plus: whether the frontier is worth being on, what happens the first time someone dies, Macklemore getting bounced off the Ed Sheeran tour, the rip-off economy, and a spirited defense of yogurt. * Watch us on YouTube * Troy Young’s People vs Algorithms newsletter * Brian Morrissey’s The Rebooting newsletter * Alex Schleifer’s Human Computer * Follow Alex, Brian and Troy on Twitter * Join our community - PvA Field Notes Chapters: * 02:45 AI Characters and Shifting Alliances * 28:48 Public Trust and the China Question * 33:55 Frontier Labs Go Political * 39:44 When AI Breaks Things * 45:42 Field Notes Mixtapes * 49:46 Quick Hits * 01:08:33 Good Product * 01:11:54 Credits This is a public episode.
