This week on Questionable Content, Dr. Dakotah Tyler and Justin Shaifer unpack the AI hype cycle, speculative bubbles, and why humans keep falling for the same narratives every generation.
They talk through Project Genesis, Big Tech and government partnerships, Isaac Newton’s financial mistakes, crypto and AI comparisons, and whether the current moment feels more like progress or another bubble waiting to burst. The conversation also explores AI fear narratives, environmental concerns, dopamine inflation, social media burnout, creativity, work, and how modern life may be drifting away from what humans actually evolved for.
It’s messy, thoughtful, and honest. No scripts. No talking points. Just curiosity.
