Thinking On Paper

Your story in technology. Weekly Interviews & conversations on AI, Quantum computing, space & robotics. For people who live & work in the real world.

Jeremy has been getting deep and personal with Claude. Simulation not emulation. They're like fudge and caramel, they're not the same.

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

Classical information cannot be organized as living organisms, It can only be used virtual worlds. Sorry AI.

"Probability is about knowledge, and only consciousness can know. Therefore, probability has relevance only if consciousness exists."

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

This book starts tame but echoes a growing dread, pulling you into a vortex of existential questions. Reading it feels like the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, an escalating descent into the unknown. #consciousness #podcasts

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

That time Mark and Jeremy read Irreducible by Federico Faggin and asked each other questions they didn't understand. #consciousness #quantum

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

Probability is subjective and doesn't exist outside the mind. Oh, and the universe is conscious. According to this book by Federico Faggin.

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

How does your inner experience differ from mine? I don't have the classical symbolic vocabulary to explain that. Or indeed much of this book. #Consciousness #irreducible

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

Federico Faggin's book Irreducible will do strange things to you. Is the collapse of the wavefunction the result of a conscious universe? (I know the answer is no, btw.)

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

How do you get from the Moon to Mars?

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

Building a full-time human presence on the Moon isn't just science fiction. We're diving into NASA's Moonbase User's Guide to explore the feasible tech, the economics, and what's truly missing from this ambitious lunar dream. #Moonbase #SpaceExploration #NASA

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

Out with utopian idealism, in with hard-nosed realism. Talk about choosing a side.

Has anyone read Enders Game? Can't figure out how it fits into AI war strategy.

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

Big tech and big government and big bombs and big drones and big swarms of drones all walk into a pub...

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

It's Area 51, but you get the idea right? You make China weapons the input, and get your fresh and funky US output in hours, not years. What could possibly go wrong?

It's all good and well ChatGPT having an hallucination at work, but having an hallucination on the battlefield? Incentives and rewards...

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

Roses are red, violets are blue and this transformation is a race fueled by the accelerating pace of commercial AI innovation coming out of America's private sector.

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

I've got tech news for you kid, "We must internalize that military AI is going to be a race for the foreseeable future and therefore speed wins."

#technology #podcasts

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

Is there a scarier AI sentence than this? We must accept that the risks of not moving fast enough outweigh the risks of imperfect alignment.

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

buried somewhere in the bureaucratic, grandiose, chest-beating language of this memorandum is a very serious conversation about who controls AI, and does AI make war more likely or less likely? #AI #podcast

[Thinking On Paper @thinkonpaperpod]

AI is going to war. With our without you.

This is a memorandum published by the White House signed by Pete Hegseth the Secretary of War and issued by the Department of War on January the 9th 2026.
