Episode notes

Two brothers who escaped Russia say we have 2 years before AI replaces us - and we're paying the corporations building it.

Daniil & David Liberman sold their first company to Snapchat. Now they're racing to build a decentralised alternative to OpenAI and Google before the window closes. They explain why centralised AI ends in a two-tier world - a small elite with access, and the rest of us as "moving parts" - and why the next 24 months decide which path we take.

In this episode:

→ Why you can't opt out of AI and stay competitive

→ The recursive loop: AI is now writing AI

→ Why the kill switch won't work

→ What they saw inside Russia in 2008 that's happening now with AI

→ The darkest scenario they almost didn't want to say out loud
