Oh yeah... we go deep today. Into Capitalism and it's future. We hear a lot about how we in 'late stage capitalism' but what's next? Are we seeing the demise of capitalism? And if so, what's next?

Big one today, friends. And we went all over the place... started with bot farms and how they are fucking up our relationship to each other, moved into misinformation and how AI contributes, and then the weird dissonance of watching AI use the psychological tools they are explaining, on you, in real time.

And it sparked a fascinating conversation, which led to the birth of this podcast. But first, some context...

Another day, another existential crisis, where I'm once again thinking about what the fuck I'll do with the next 20 years of my career? Where to turn for answers? ChatGPT, of course. What started as a bit of advice around what I could do with my life, took a turn when I suddenly asked myself (and then ChatGPT) why on earth I would ask for advice from the very thing taking my job? The response felt weirdly validating and eerily gaslighty.

Post our last chat, I got to thinking about how ChatGPT tends to validate me all the time. Even the shittest of ideas gets a metaphorical high five. And if more and more people are using this as a coach, counsellor, therapist, or cheerleader, aren't we just creating echo chambers? And does ChatGPT have any duty of care?
