Read excerpt
Forty-seven minutes on the two words that follow every objective function ever written, and on what the machines have and have not learned to write. Two voices this time: the narrator is Lily, the synthetic voice that carried Single Player and The Third Fraction; my own cloned voice comes in five short passages about the loop in my automation rack, a submarine, a battery, and a number I wrote wrong. The question I get most often, from people who run our optimizer in their own houses, is the same
The Only Sane Place to Stand (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The man with more identity invested in handwritten code than anyone alive just watched machines learn the craft — and he sounds grateful. This episode takes his stance apart: what actually becomes scarce when execution gets cheap, where attention lives while the future accelerates, how to let an old version of yourself die without calling it a waste, and why two teenagers in a kitchen are a better clock than any dashboard. Runtime about 40 minutes. On a Sunday morning at the end of August I pull
The Grid in the Sky (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A particle over Utah, a room-sized computer that could not hold a worm, and the search for a simulation claim that can fail. On 15 October 1991, the Fly’s Eye detector in western Utah recorded the most energetic cosmic ray ever measured. The instrument saw the ultraviolet trace of an air shower miles long. Researchers worked backward from that light and found that one subatomic particle had arrived with about fifty joules of energy. Its source is still unknown. Twenty-one years later, Silas Bean
The Third Fraction (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Seventy-one minutes on the most argued-about idea of this century: Nick Bostrom’s simulation argument, walked as what it actually is — a census. No host this time: a synthetic narrator carries the whole hour, the same voice that carried Single Player. Episode 110, Single Player, made a deliberate move: it stated the simulation argument once, set the probability down unexamined, and spent its hour on the question that survives every metaphysics — how to play whatever this is. I promised myself th
What Could Go Wrong (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We ask one question about every new technology: what could go wrong? This episode is about the question we almost never ask — what goes wrong because we didn’t — and why one of those two ledgers is always full of names while the other stays empty. It starts in a machinery space on the Baltic, and it ends at your electricity meter. Runtime about 43 minutes. In my early twenties I was a sub-lieutenant and second engineer on HMS Ystad, a Swedish missile boat built in the seventies, on watch in a ma
