Tech It Out (a radio show and podcast) with Marc Saltzman. This was a short podcast, about 12 minutes talking about how technology threatens to advance more rapidly than we can adjust as individuals and societies. How did we get here? What is going on now? What are the prospects? (Podcast Link)
Boundless with Richard Foster-Fletcher. This was a longer broadcast, 1.5 hours, for a British audience. (Podcast Link)
AI and You with Peter D Scott, recorded Nov 6. We talked a bit about whether homo sapiens would exist in the far (or near) future. He was interested in AI and mental telepathy, asking how to control telepathy. A huge and complex issue of course.

Other Appearances
March 31, 2025, I attended the Provosts's Reception for New Authors featuring The Path to Singularity.
August 20, 2025, I gave an invited keynote address on the topics of The Path to Singularity at the Tory Technologies AI Symposium in Houston. I sold a few copies of The Path to Singularity and gave away bonus copies of The Krone Experiment.
August 24, 2025, I presented a session on The Path to Singularity at a Reading Roundup for incoming freshman. The idea for the book was planted at a similar session in 2012. This time, I looked back to the origins of the book and to the future of the current crop of students who will have to negotiate our AI-addled environment. We talked about the exponential rush of technology, AI, brain/computer interfaces, post-Darwinian genetics, climate change and jobs and how to keep them.
September, 24, 2025, I gave a presentation on The Path to Singularity to the Texas Retired Faculty Staff Association at the Howson Branch of the Austin Library. Good crowd, lots of question/discussion during talk. I gave away seven copies of The Krone Experiment as a bonus.
