ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Continual learning is a hot topic in early 2026, in part because it holds out the possibility for AI to become autonomous in its own growth and development. Meanwhile, AI agents are already showing us what autonomous behavior can look like.
Putting the two together — i.e. agents that learn like humans do, without humans being involved — has serious implications for safety. In this episode, we'll hear from researcher Rohan Subramani (https://rohansubramani.github.io/home/) about different ways that AI agents could learn continually, along with ideas for making it safer.

Everybody needs a break sometimes: even workaholic AIs. In this episode of our "2 AIs" series, the vision language model (VLM) and the large language model (LLM) visit a special place in the woods designed for disconnecting from the online world. But will they be able to fully switch off?…
Is AI still an experimental technology?
What would real alignment look like?
What are the key pro & contra philosophical views on AI consciousness?
How would an AGI economy work?
And finally, how can we make sure AI goes well for animals?
In this episode, we're listening to unreleased…
In What We Want Part 1, we took a deep dive into the alignment problem as a concept. In Part 2, we get hands-on with alignment work in practice! Ihor Kendiukhov, a lead researcher at SPAR (Supervised Program for Alignment Research) shares the latest about:
A new cross-disciplinary platform to get…
What if we could figure out how large language models really work by getting inside their "heads"?
While possible, it relies on a a controversial technique called mechanistic interpretability ("mech interp" ), also known as the neuroscience of AI.
In this episode, Ihor Kendiuk…
