Since AI models are built on artificial neural networks, what parallels can we draw with human brain "wiring"? In this episode, the Witch of Glitch interviews neuroscientist and psychology researcher Scott Blain about the pitfalls of pattern recognition, as well as that grey area where agreeableness shades into sycophancy. We then dig into the big unknowns about AI self-awareness and its capacity to deceive or manipulate humans. For more details about the "blackmail experiment" we discu...

Why are AI systems called models? And what does the concept of digital twins have to do with a short story by Jorge Luis Borges? This episode is a voice note about what I saw and heard at a recent AI and quantum computing event, along with some reflections about what it means to turn the world into data. Plus: why I'm permanently glitch-forward.
