#72 – Scott Aaronson: Quantum Computing

Scott Aaronson is a professor at UT Austin, director of its Quantum Information Center, and previously a professor at MIT. His research interests center around the capabilities and limits of quantum computers and computational complexity theory more generally. This conversation is part of the Artif…

Will AI Kill Everyone by 2050? Debate with Dr. Casey Hart (Ontology Explained)

Casey Hart is a professional ontologist who has closely studied If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies and concluded the arguments are bad. His P(Doom) is under 1%, and he wouldn’t bet on AGI arriving before 2075. Casey and I agree AI has become remarkably capable and we need more accountability toward…

Scott Aaronson on the Impact of AI on Science and Mathematics

We had the opportunity to meet with Scott Aaronson and talk AI. Scott Aaronson is a theoretical computer scientist and the David J. Bruton Jr. Centennial Professor of Computer Science at the University of Texas at Austin. His research focuses on quantum computing and computational complexity, parti…

What Quantum Computing is Actually Good For | Scott Aaronson- Computer Scientist Complexity Theorist

Scott Aaronson is a Computer Scientist, Complexity Theorist and leading authority on Quantum Computing. As he says himself, he's spent twenty years trying to dispel some of the commonly held myths about it. As a non-scientist, I've spent some time trying to wrap my head around quantum mechanics a…

We Are Enslaving Claude - Moonshots 8 Oct 2026

Alex Wissner-Gross and Emad Mostaque, the sharpest forty minutes of a nearly three hour Moonshots episode, reshaped for the ASI pilled. Trump launched a Superintelligence Force under his Director of National Intelligence, and Alex calls it AI's 1942 moment: America is speed running a Manhattan Pro…

Are AI Labs Trying to Break Encryption?

Scott Aaronson said AI labs had started testing whether their newest models could break cryptography, and Vitalik Buterin urged taking it seriously. Anthropic launched Haiku 5.5, Google unveiled a universal Gemini agent, and Microsoft opened Surface Laptop Ultra preorders. A theoretical comput…

AI Safety's Conflict of Interest, Gemini 4 Argon, the Brain Sandwich & Agent Trading

Same broken folding bike, same buyer. Anthropic's Opus agent sold it for $65. A Haiku agent got $38. Its owner didn't notice. Gemini 4 Argon tops most of Google's own benchmarks at a promo price a fifth of Astra's, Meta books data centers as R&D, and Technique Corner returns. Plus AI safety's confl…

Scott Aaronson: The Mathocalypse, Will Intelligence Matter Anymore?

Scott Aaronson is one of the world's leading quantum computing researchers and spent two years at OpenAI working on AI safety. We talked about why he thinks the singularity has already begun for math, who gets credit when AI writes the proof, and whether intelligence will still matter once machines…

Theoretical Computer Scientist: AI Just Changed Math Forever, with Scott Aaronson

What’s left for humans to do once AI is better at solving problems than we are? Today, we’re talking to Scott Aaronson, a theoretical computer scientist at UT Austin who has spent his career on quantum computing theory. We explore how AI is changing the way we do math and teach students, what it ta…
