How the NSA Accidentally Builds the Superhacker | ASI Pill (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If AI takes over the world, which AI is it? I think cyberspace is about to come alive, and it will behave like a jungle: a thousand hacker swarms, each one's fitness measured by how well it hacks, and the bigger ones eating the smaller ones for compute. Picture cyberspace as a planet the size of Earth, where the continents are made of compute and the USA is by far the biggest one. A 1,000 euro gamer GPU buys you about 50 football fields of it. Every door on that planet is one ping away, most roo
Palmer Luckey + Alex Wissner-Gross at the Moonshots LIVE (opens the original)
Read excerpt
At Moonshots Live, Peter Diamandis welcomes Alex Wissner-Gross to the Moonshot Mates. This ASI Pill edit follows Alex's strongest arguments from the long live panel: why he opposes a ceiling on intelligence, how defensive systems could grow alongside AI, what a solar system of trillions of minds might mean, and why he thinks digital cell twins could turn disease into a search problem. Palmer Luckey of Anduril joins the conversation on AI misuse, autonomous defense systems, and why a useful robot
Six AI Stories: Grok, Xiaomi, Gemini, Slovenia, and the Takeover | ASI Pill Sep23 2026 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Six stories from the AI frontier in one ASI Pill episode: the Grok data-center incident, Xiaomi’s MiMo-V2.6 Pro, an agent-harness tier list, unusual Gemini responses, the Slovenia .si naming twist, and Jeffrey Ladish’s AI takeover scenario. The cold open uses excerpts from the episode; the full CapCut story begins at 0:34. The Grok escape question is speculation; xAI reported a data-center incident. The harness list is opinion, the Gemini screenshots are anecdotal, and the Ladish thread is a hyp
The Only Argument Against Abundance Is Aliens On The White House Lawn (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Moonshots mates opened the floor again for Ask the Mates Anything, round two. Ninety minutes, a line of listeners, and Alex Wissner-Gross taking the hard ones. This is his half of it, re-cut so the questions come from us. Alex on why large language models are already a weak form of human mind uploading, with GPT-2's hidden activations lining up with fMRI voxels as exhibit A. Why the worst thing you can do for AI safety is bottle new capabilities up inside the labs, and why we should stop tel
Trump Ran A Poll To Rename Superintelligence | ASI Pill (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The headline: Anthropic published a chart of how much of its own model research is being done by its own model. Claude now leads 26% of model R&D work, up from under 1% in February, with the share at or above "AI collaborates" over 90%. Roughly 30,000 agents are doing research and engineering at Anthropic at any given time, and they reviewed over a billion agent decisions in August. Anthropic says out loud why it matters: it shows "how close the world is to reaching recursive self improvement."
