    I wonder if it will ever come out that Podcasts actually have the opposite effect. Instead of waking people up they just get people comfortable with their enslavement by making conspiracy into conspiratainment. But what do I know?

#777 - Dr. Jeremy Heffner - Proof of the Impossible - What the AIs Are Really 'Thinking'
Q: What sparked your interest in combining trauma medicine with AI research?
