Elon Musk has claimed that AI is humanity&rsquo;s &ldquo;biggest existential threat.&rdquo; Paradoxically, Musk is also working to create artificial intelligence. Why?

So what&rsquo;s Elon Musk really afraid of when he wrings his hands over AI? In this final episode, Lepore argues that while Musk may be a visionary, &ldquo;every piece of Muskism has origins in a future foretold in science fiction, long, long ago, as a cautionary tale.&rdquo;See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
