68 - Red Heart (Guest: Max Harms)

Daystar and Alex invite Max back on the podcast to talk about his new novel, ⁠Red Heart⁠, a modern sci-fi thriller that follows an American spy sent to a Chinese AI lab to investigate how far ahead their capabilities are compared to the US.

Max works at the Machine Intelligence Research Institute, and has been thinking about the state of AI Safety for over a decade now. He's also written the Crystal Society trilogy, which we discussed in episode 66.
