666 - Kevin Russell Returns (AI/The Future)

Kevin is my go-to guy when I have questions about AI, cutting edge technologies, and crypto currencies. But he’s not just some freakishly smart super-nerd; he thinks of these seemingly cut and dry issues with all the juiciness of mythology, Jungian archetypes, and a deep appreciation of world history. Unsurprisingly perhaps, his personal life is as rich and unexpected as his thought patterns. The only man I know with a digital twin working on a techno-fix for his mother’s dementia is also a single dad running a farm in Montana. (I helped him corral some cows who were freaked out by July 4th fireworks. Am I a fucking hero or what?) Plus, he kind of looks like George Michael, am I right? Follow Kevin’s Substack.

Intro music “Brightside of the Sun,” by Basin and Range. “Poisoning Pigeons in the Park,” by Tom Lehrer. Outro: “Smoke Alarm,” by Carsie Blanton.
