Riley is out this week, and in his stead we’ve convened a special episode of Trashfuture featuring Milo, Hussein, Nate, and Alice on the topic of a failing ‘AI’ startup called Nate. Yes, it’s called Nate. And it’s a pure, concentrated example of ‘what if your robot was just a guy.’

We draw heavily from Malique Morris’s article from The Information, and you should read it https://www.theinformation.com/articles/shaky-tech-and-cash-burning-giveaways-ai-shopping-startup-shows-excesses-of-funding-boom and also follow him on twitter at @luxeoflique

This episode really brings all your economic critiques into one great package. Love it.

What's crazy is that William the Conqueror's descendants do still exist, and they still have the lands they stole off the peasants to tuis very day. It's somewhere round Sussex, I think. Nick Hayes' book, "The Book of Trespass" is fantastic for learning about this stuff, and it honestly made me really passionate about land reform and how fucked up enclosure was.
