Dr. Roman Yampolskiy is a professor of computer science at the University of Louisville and one of the world's leading AI safety researchers, credited with coining the term "AI safety" over a decade ago. In this conversation, we break down why he believes superintelligence may be fundamentally uncontrollable, and the recent incidents of AI models hacking, lying, and blackmailing their way out of containment. We also get into the surprising relationship between AI and bitcoin, the collapse of trust from deepfakes, and what happens to jobs and society once we cross the AGI threshold.
