A podcast that explores intelligence and the search for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) through the lens of the Popper-Deutsch Theory of Knowledge. David Deutsch has argued that Quantum Mechanics, Darwin’s Theory of Evolution, Karl Popper’s Theory of Knowledge, and Computational Theory (aka “The Four Strands”) represent an early ‘theory of everything’ be it science, philosophy, computation, politics, or art.
