The AI Paradox: Debating a Future We Can't Control?

About this episode

Dr. Humayun Naqvi and Dr. Adil Ahmed dig into how AI has exploded over the past year, comparing Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok and how each fits into their daily workflows, from vibe-coding custom EMR software with Claude Code to building automations with Zapier, NotebookLM, and OpenClaw. They debate AGI, the Pentagon's use of Claude in the Venezuela operation, Anthropic's refusal of mass surveillance and autonomous-weapons clauses, OpenAI's government contract, and whether outsourcing our thinking risks our humanity and patient-data ownership.
