There's Been An Under-Discussion (with Natalie Haynes)

Have the risks of AI been under-discussed? Is Tony Blair right to say there is no debate to be had? Should you shout at Harold Pinter through a tent? Armando and Natalie find out.

Natalie Haynes joins Armando to look at the differing language used when discussing the benefits and risks of the AI revolution.

Is it just 'a thing' which is beyond debate? What does non-zero actually mean? And we examine the language of Tony Blair's argument, by taking it to its logical conclusion.

In the longer version, you will also hear the ramification of shouting at Harold Pinter, Peter Thiel's unimpeachable jury, and whether we're all living in Armando's diving helmet.
