When the power mysteriously goes out across the country, society does not instantly break down. Transportation does. Most people simply wait. Martin thinks trouble is coming. His Plan B is to walk the 50 miles from Boston to his home in New Hampshire. His plan B must be revised. He did not plan on Susan: a woman he only knew as a teller in his bank. Traveling together, they encounter criminals out to exploit the outage and local governments intent to restrict travel.

Following up on the earlier episode about AI and Prepping, Mic, Brian, and Jeff look at the potential doom of having AI given control over crucial facets of human society but getting too smart for the people who think they can control it. Some people welcome AI control. Some don't care too much. Some are very afraid. Are we getting spooked over potential boogeymen or are we right to be worried?
The video Jeff found:
How AI Takeover Could Happen In 2 Years: A Scenario:
The interview that Brian found:
