Grok thinks it’s Mecha Hitler, and AIs can think strategically

In episode 59 of the AI Fix, our hosts ponder whether AIs need a “disagreement dial”, Mark wonders what he could do with an AI-powered “drug design engine”, Graham plays Wolfenstein instead of working, a robot graduates from high school, and a popular rock group is unmasked as an AI fever dream.

Graham explains why Grok thinks it’s Mecha Hitler, and Mark reveals which AI is most likely to betray you.
