In the first episode of our series on metaphysics, Michael Herman joins us from Episode #14 on “What is consciousness?” to discuss reality. More specifically, the question of objects in reality. The team explores Plato’s forms, Aristotle’s realism, emergence, and embodiment to determine whether AI models can approximate from what humans uniquely experience. Defining objects via properties, perception, and persistenceBanana and circle examples for identity and idealsPlato versus Aristo...

AI governance: Building smarter AI agents from the fundamentals, part 4
Sid Mangalik and Andrew Clark explore the unique governance challenges of agentic AI systems, highlighting the compounding error rates, security risks, and hidden costs that organizations must address when implementing multi-step AI processes. Show notes: • Agentic AI systems require governance at every step: perception, reasoning, action, and learning • Error rates compound dramatically in multi-step processes - a 90% accurate model per step becomes only 65% accurate over four steps •...
