The Revolution in Real Time: Conversations on Artificial Intelligence, Science, and the Future.
The Thinking About Thinking Podcast features long-form conversations with researchers, engineers, thinkers, and practitioners working across the sciences of intelligence.
Through these discussions, we explore how ideas develop, how disciplines intersect, and how scientific and technological advances shape our understanding of mind, computation, and society. Episodes focus less on prediction or promotion and more on explanation, reasoning, and intellectual context.
The podcast complements our conferences, workshops, and seminars by making serious thinking accessible beyond the room.
