Eli Beer is a pioneer, social entrepreneur, President and Founder of United Hatzalah of Israel. In thirty years, the organization has grown to more than 6,500 volunteers who unite together to provide immediate, life-saving care to anyone in need - regardless of race or religion. This community EMS force network treats over 730,000 incidents per year, in Israel, as they wait for ambulances and medical attention. Eli’s vision is to bring this life-saving model across the world. In 2015, Beer expanded internationally with the establishment of branches in South America and other countries, including “United Rescue” in Jersey City, USA, where the response time was reduced to just two minutes and thirty-five seconds.

Without sounding too many alarm bells, we now have a study showing LLMs collaborating with one another to outwit their guardrails. Depending which side of the fence you stand on, this could be a miracle, or something much more sinister. Besides that, we cover everything from building DNA nanobots inside our cells, AI-powered IVF (3 guesses the dystopia these topics might lead to…), fluid non-metallic batteries that can take any shape, being able to touch and manipulate 3d holograms, and so much more.

A recent survey stated 75% of scientists want to leave the US. We look into what the knock on effects might be both for better and worse. Who benefits, and how do science and tech evolve as a result? Beyond that, we prompt questions like… Could predicting a heart attack end up causing one? Could the prestige of being a doctor drop as AI takes hold? Could we unleash a pandemic with fungal-based packaging? How does language change if we use tongues to navigate our devices?

We take a hard look at how AI tools shape the way we think. We recorded this just before all the tariff news. Its since emerged the list of countries affected and how, have strong signs of AI-led decision making. In some cases, being confidently incorrect. As the font of all wisdom of our time, do we care at all where these generated outputs fit on the sociopolitical spectrum, or where the sources of info come from? Beyond that, we do cover some weird and wonderful science like non-breathing animals and self-assembling electronics using DNA. But, its still hard to avoid these consequential announcements. Sean’s links: * Discovering the first non-breathing animal * Using botox-based enzymes to fight Parkinson’s * ChatGPT shifting rightwards politically * Weaponised content and where it comes from * Google Health updates now riskily include crowd-sourced answers * Beijing making AI education mandatory * The enormous value creation of open-sourced software * Honourable mentions: * What does it take to get us to another planet? * A breakdown of China’s robotics strategy Ben’s links: * Greener nuclear fusion * Using DNA to create self-assembling electronics * Genes influence our taste in music * Transistors like neurons If you enjoyed this, subscribe for free to receive new episodes right to your inbox Otherwise, you can find Promise on your favorite podcast platforms: * Spotify * Apple Podcasts This is a public episode.

Much like past guest Billy Jeremijenko and his company Aquila are doing for reinventing energy transportation, we cover moonshot projects aiming to transfer data with light, and put data centers on the moon. Does this start a scramble for lunar space and a reinvention of copywright law? A little more controversial is we now live in a reality where we have cancer vaccines that work, and that, however you might feel about the current adminstration, the Pentagon is saying the quiet part out loud about “killer robots”. What do these futures look like if you had your say? Sean’s links: * An open-sourced nuclear fusion power plant * 3D-printing fish meat at scale * Pentagon saying the quiet part out loud * Internet of Light * Data centers on the moon Ben’s links: * MRNA vaccines for cancer * Antidepressants doing more harm than good * Virtual reality food * Stretchable, distortion-free substrates for displays If you enjoyed this, subscribe for free to receive new episodes right to your inbox Otherwise, you can find Promise on your favorite podcast platforms: * Spotify * Apple Podcasts This is a public episode.

In this episode we look at the latest examples where theoretical physics starts intersecting with reality: what if you could store light as energy, to use it again later? What if we could use light as code, to manipulate our own cells? These scientific breakthroughs are tempered by more ominous tech developments: what do we make of a world where Uber with Guns is mainstream? Or when humanoid robots are intentionally terrifying? All this and more coming right up.

We already guessed it, but now we have the science to back it up: bots successfully drive up engagement of online platforms, but also drive down human connection in the process. For all the clamor, excitement, and maybe dread about an AI-powered future, we did settle on the fact its human connection that still matters most. But is that the path we’re headed down? Beyond this, we also look into hydrocarbon-producing leaves, underwater habitation, not-so-forever chemicals, using light to make AI computations, and much more. Please, enjoy.

We find ourselves increasingly unable to avoid politics on this show. However, we did approach the topic from a scientific perspective: finally, someone has done cross-border research to see whether trust in science is declining, and whether political affiliation had an impact. The answers, if the science is to be believed, may surprise you. We also highlight the student-led uprising in Serbia, and its novel form of governance. Beyond the politics, we also cover everything from battery-less personal devices, to DNA chirality, to self-replicating AI and more. Please, enjoy the show. Sean’s links: * The world’s biggest battery from the least likely suspect? * Global trust in science is strong!

We start off with a literal bang: people are successfully achieving nuclear fusion out of their kitchens. Beyond that, we chat about discovering new properties for the element bismuth, the world’s thinnest pasta, 3D-printing your own airplane, and of course much more in the realm of AI. One of these articles concerns US government intervention on AI driving rent prices up across the country. In the week since we recorded this, the official White House sources for the case have been taken down, in a general purge of information the new administration is conducting. With that in mind, what is the future you would like to build?

In the final episode of 2024 we look at growing new teeth, quantum computing breakthroughs, growing diamonds in 15 minutes, turning them into diamond batteries that last for 5000 years, materials that can learn and adapt, and much more. Again, we do discuss the sentiments surrounding the insurance industry right now. This is especially pertinent with proposed new forms of corporate and public governance that we look into. Finally, we finish off the season strong with some profound words from resident science communicator Ben. Listen in, enjoy, and we’ll speak again soon.

In this episode, we cover AI big boys teaming up with defense big boys, open-sourcing AI compute, semiconductors dissolved in goo, electro-conductive tattoos, curing dementia, and even tapeworm-based machinery. It’d also be hard to avoid news from the insurance industry right now so we do question: does the model still work if we don’t trust our insurance suppliers? In this episode, the dystopias we cover are probably much closer than many might want to admit. The important question is, as always: what is the future that you would like to build?

This episode, we debate the cultural acceptance of AI inference being good enough to replace us. Off the back of developing lightning fast inference hardware, should we care that outputs are 90% right rather than the full 100? The last decade has shown us that what we see, learn, know even… depends on who built the software that we use. Does it matter who builds the hardware too? What if they’re the same entity? We go heavy with the social observations in this one, so please, enjoy.

We’ve largely steered clear of AI advancements in recent episodes, mostly because the news around them seems relentless. This episode though, we cover everything from generalist AI models for everyday robots, to AI-generated privacy masks, to the AI-powered robots that can build you anything, to our preference for AI-generated content. We’ve got it all. We even get into a heated discussion about using AI for research and education. How is the education system working or failing, and where might AI fit into it? All this and more, coming right up.
