Fortress Futurism Explained

Riley, Hussein, and November speak with friends of the show Quinn Slobodian and Ben Tarnoff about their new book, Muskism: A Guide for the Perplexed. We discuss the political ethos of Musk and his peers, and the origins of his "everything is computer" philosophy. However, we also had to take a detour into the story of the "AI-built startup that's worth a billion dollars," because... well, it's just a thing that lies a bunch. Again.
