Can We Trust AI? The $30M Fight for Truth

Some AI models are lying.
Others refuse to shut down.
And one even simulated blackmail.

This episode unpacks the story behind LawZero, a new $30 million nonprofit founded by AI legend Yoshua Bengio. His goal? Build AI that tells the truth — and block the ones that don’t.

We cover:
– Real-world cases of AI misbehavior
– Why Bengio says we’re “playing with fire”
– The difference between agentic AI and Scientist AI
– What this means for your business, your tools, and your trust

If you’ve ever wondered who’s watching the AI while it watches us, this is the episode.
